In Quiet Rooms

by Joe Cramer

In the quiet room I waited
As the soft sun streamed through
The opened window,
Warming my heart,
Warming my life.
In observed silence I wrote onward
My pen marking small sounds
On the blank pages of a blank book
That held nothing, holds everything.
In somber, smug silence
I watched and waited
Until my time began.

Joe, I like this because I relate to the fact that sometimes getting away from the electronic monster to a quiet room inspires creativity. And in the quiet, the "blank pages of a blank book..." are the universe we have only to unfold in our minds.
