the silence that descends
needing new words.
The calming peace
of dusk and the settling day.
The companionable quiet
of eating together, enjoying the food.
The comfortable silence
of alone time after a day in company.
The welcoming silence
of being at home in meditation.
The reassuring peace
as night draws in
curtains closed, fire licking logs
collected by my husband.
How to define
the silence that descends?
Calming, companionable, comfortable
closing, collected quiet.
These words are enough.
