Peaceful moments

Let’s hear the sound of silence,
  so take away the noise.
An interval for quietness
  can give you so much joy.
Pause to rest your emotions,
  for the head to unwind.
Pause for reminiscence
  to calm one’s mind.
For time to think is precious,
  the thoughts you think are clear.
That inner peace you feel
  is an attitude tranquil.
For quietness is a tonic
  to heal life’s ills.
