                          Silence...
                          ----------             by Steven M. List

                    Silence... and yet
                    there is life.
                    The faintest whisper
                    of sound floats by.

                    Silence... and yet
                    life continues.
                    A stirring trembles
                    the air.

                    Silence... and the
                    life grows,
                    and comes to the light
                    and hears the whisper 
                    and feels the stirring
                    and...

                    Silence... and yet
                    there is light.
