The Mountains say Nothing

Silence, cold silence in the blue mountain mist
ancient hills have no need for words
creation trembles at the magnitude of this
between my fingers the wind runs
I stand in awe
as I feel the need to reach for the top
if I had wings I'd go
I would listen to the silence
and learn

so nice to have you back with us.  

When your own emptiness is all thats getting through
There comes a point when youre not sure why youre still talking
I passed that point long ago

JM chose the section that I most enjoyed.  Wonderful piece, BR.  Great to see you here, seems like you've been gone awhile but it might just be my timing.
