In Silence

In silence they sat with heads bowed.  In every corner of the world, in groups large and small, in private or public, in pews or chairs or on the ground.

A rumble of sound swelled up from the land embracing the multitude of mourners as with one voice they cried out their anguish.

Their cries faded and wet faces lifted to the heavens. Above them a stately procession of gossamer filaments stretched from horizon to horizon.


A shifting, and an opening appeared sending radiant light slanting down to touch the earth and a feeling of peace rose in their hearts.
