Quiet

my soul is magnified

it wishes to burst forth with joy

shhhh, my dear soul

answer not and do not spill

the thoughts that impregnate your heart.

shhhhhhh, murmur not the sounds of joy

that light your belly aglow

they are unable to bear such truths of

many years ago

be quiet my soul

as one day the accepting soul will come

to share of the joy you own.
