Can you hear it ? Hear that sound The one that consumes Me all around The sound of silence Engulfing me No noise I hear I never have Vibrations felt All through my hands Treat me different Please do not For I can see And I can touch I have a gift It came from god I was given life For me to live I do my best The best I can With what I have Not what I lack So when you see me Look within Inside of me The same I am |

I do my best The best I can With what I have Not what I lack That verse speaks to me and could very well stand alone~ *enjoyed* |

I wonder sometimes if natural silence would be better than being able to hear. There are things I would miss either way. Love this. Love is patient, indeed. It endures the distance when it seems we cannot endure it ourselves. |

Very beautiful and touching. You see in the silence you found beauty. It radiates through you and it is noticed.... and you vibrate in love. Love, Margherita |

Thank you, Julie - I'm sending this link to my sister, who has a profoundly deaf son. He's surely one for making the best of every moment of his life - and I know she'll love your verse... |

whiskey, your silence is heard, you are one a little different as we all are in some way, your gift to us is you, your sharing, your caring and time. I enjoyed this, thank you, take care. Silence is golden as your post here. Sincerely Rick |
