‘The Sounds of Silence’ has
inspired these words of my
following poem –
Hello – My Old Friends
WHY have you come to
Visit me again?
JUST when I thought we
Had said Goodbye
WHILE I was sleeping
UPON my head
Troubles abide
YOUR messages stir my soul
AS I ponder why
FOR now I am weak and
Frail
A strange sound of silence
NEITHER asleep or awake
IF I had wings as a dove
Upon its feathers I would
Fly and be at rest
BUT to this
Earth my thoughts are
Tethered and bound
And for now my
OLD friends I must say
GOODBYE AGAIN!
