K Gibran
we thought she might be injured and/or even with dead form.
Then suddenly she flew away to freedom in Pure Nature.....
Fueled and Rested via The Sound from Beyond The Silence.

and I wonder why I ever thought to use language.
Rumi
In us, in our secret depth,
lies the knowing element which sees and hears that which we do not see nor hear.
All our perceptions, all the things we have done, all that we are today,
dwelt once in that knowing, silent depth, that treasure chamber in the soul.
And we are more than we think.
We are more than we know.
That which is more than we think and know is always seeking and adding to itself
while we are doing nothing - or think we are doing nothing.
But to be conscious of what is going in our depth is to help it along.
When subconsciousness becomes consciousness,
the seeds in our winter-clad-selves turn to flowers,
and the silent life in us sings with all its might.
Kahlil Gibran,
Beloved Prophet: the love letters, p268
****
Why are you so afraid of silence,
silence is the root of everything.
If you spiral into its void,
a hundred voices will thunder messages you long to hear.
Rumi - 'Hidden Music' - Maryam Mafi & Azima Melita Kolin
“Keep silence,” be mute;
if you have not yet become
the tongue of God,
be an ear.
Rumi, Mathnawi, II-3456
