The Silent Symphony
Rachel C.

Sitting there listening to the sounds
Of nature’s silent symphony.
Today it’s calm, playing a gentle tune,
Unlike yesterday.
I’m just sitting there letting all of my thoughts
Bounce around in my head.
Love friendship and trust.
The breeze is blowing
Like woodwinds. Light and airy.
And I hear the crickets chirping,
Like strings. Pulsating and pure.
The birds are singing,
Like brass. Strong and loud.
And the grass is rustling around my feet,
Like percussion. Steady and rhythmic.
Strangely soothing, calming, comforting.
I watch the sun go down as I listen.
And my anger subsides.
Sitting there listening to nature’s silent symphony.
