To Be Quiet

To be quiet is a wonderful thing
It give you time to listen
And hear birds sing

You can reflect on your life
What you have done
In it there is strife
But also some fun

I once wrote a song
When I was just sitting
It was about a bird
And the branch it was flitting

I would write it here,
But alas I have forgotten
What the words were
I swear my head's filled with cotton

It's interesting to see
What you think of
When you let yourself be
And just sit, like a dove

I like to think
That when I am silent
I can stay there invisibly
And just be quiet
