traveling at the speed of sound

silence, then-
moving from there to a new spot created by sound
I stand back and watch, what more can I do
want to be a part of it for now ears is all I can be
glad I can be a part of your sound when you are back home

silence then-
getting word you showed them all moving from a
stagnating spot for you not learning but burning in you to move
move on slowly taking all in stride
now no longer hiding behind the rest you stand center stage
helmet and goggles ready for the journey ahead

silence then-
more silence you are gone on your own
with no words only sound moving slowly
no one can stop your plight
don't know where you'll land
can't help but hope it is close to this place I call home...
