A New Silence
When you travel, you find yourself
Alone in a different way,
More attentive now
To the self you bring along,
Your more subtle eye watching
You abroad; and how what meets you
Touches that part of the heart
That lies low at home.
When you travel, A new silence
Goes with you, And if you listen,
You will hear what your heart would love to say.
