PSALMS OF THE SOUL

In the silence of our lips
the psalm of the soul sings so soothingly and serene,
bringing forth the serenade
of light and love divinely composed,
to hear the voice of life displayed
before our spiritual ears,
discarding the cymbals of pride,
so the world can weeps its tears
and we are touched by their notes drops on our thoughts.

Be able to finally calm the chaos
so preoccupied with our own symphony
and hear for the first time
all the beautiful chorus that heaven writes,
suddenly entranced by the sweet hush in self,
listening more intently and clearly
where we didn’t notice
how many musical instruments
that the Lord truly created.

Let the mind truly discover
what majesty is in the melody
He has written for us to cherish,
strolling in simple awe through the nature’s operettas,
as the orchestra plays a harmony intently felt,
inspiring a peace never truly known,
because for once
we choose to embrace a rhapsody
other than our own voice.
