Are you listening
to the darkness?
whispering,
come closer
come inside
don’t be afraid
there’s no need to hide
close your eyes and listen
don’t tell me you can’t hear
the enchanting sound of darkness
whispering in your ear
for not all answers can be found in illuminating light
true insights are revealed in the quiet darkness of the night
“Life’s waters flow from the darkness. Search the darkness, don’t run from it.” ~ Rumi
Love this! So perfect!

Love the poem, Sue. I love the sound of darkness, too. Early morning here, so it is whispering ‘good day, be listening for me tonight.’

I’m so glad you liked the poem, Bill😊 I had to “murder some darlings” to stay focused on what the darkness was whispering in my ear. Have a good weekend 🎃
