Soft and Silent


Everything I love is soft and silent
     My cat, the morning, the end of the day,
Even the moon in its way.


Everything I love is soft and silent,
     The water, the forest, the snow at play,
Even the mountain in its way.


Everything I love is soft and silent,
     The sun on the sand, a rainy day,
Even the wind in it's way.

Everything I love is soft and silent,
     The grass, the brook, the leaves at play,
Even you in your way.
