Deeper than Silence

©June 15th, 2015

Vijaya Sundaram

gentle twang of strings

thrilling to ten-year old

tender fingers in golden

room filled with sweet childhood.

clicking of keys on computer

here in room awash in

sweeps of scarves and sheets.

whoosh of cars outside

dividing rain-washed streets

flinging aside water

cutting through space

hiss of electricity

the steady hum of it

permeating the air

outside my ears makes me

still, stiller than still

retreating to a place

deeper than silence.
