"The Notes I No Longer Hear"
The sweet fragrance of sound.
Has faded away.
It is near lost!
Like a rainbow.
Seen in black and white.
I miss the colors of music!
I miss the hues of nature's voice!
I miss the softness of a loved one's whisper!
I miss the brightness of a child's laughter!
Beautiful, crisp patterns of vibrations,
Resonate in silence today.
I see movement,
Without utterance.
Deafness has taught me!
In the quietness of nothing,
God has granted me a gift!
The pleasure of my memory!
For recorded in my thoughts,
I play a symphony of joyous sounds,
Of what I once heard!
With gratitude for unforgotten notes,
God has made me smile!
