Did No One Hear !

by Roy K Austin
(Dorset England)

Listening to that small male thrush
around the spire, above the yew,
singing in the midnight hush
as if the stars were listening too.
So crystal clear, beyond the word ,
beyond the miles we count in years,
a cosmos in a tiny bird
but then, it does through us, have ears,
a miracle beyond the veil,
and it would move my heart to weep,
to share with you that nightingale
in silence, with the earth asleep.
