Silent Song

The Silent Song displays a collection of poems where the author is showing another step, another level in his quest toward reaching spiritual growth and maturity. In that sense, it can be considered as a complement to what has started in the authors previously published poetry book, Gemstone. The author uses his skills in poetry to depict a rich spiritual life where despite the tests and trials of life, one can keep his composure, tame his spirit and maintain an inner peace. Ones life always speaks louder than just his words. A silent preacher living a righteous and holy life can say more by his actions than an eloquent one that relies mainly on his words to influence people around him. Someone once said, Id rather see a sermon than hear one. In this regard, may The Silent Song be an inspiration to you all. Other publications by Dr. Jol Hilaire include: On the Other Side of the Desk (2005), based on a true story Fantaisie de ma Jeunesse (2011 French poetry) Ye Are the Body of Christ (2017), a medico-theological book Gemstone (2018), poetry

When Chris Beth said yes to a struggling country minister's proposal, life seemed almost too good to be true. Could it last? The settlers in their little Oregon community could scarcely afford a resident preacher's salary, and Chris Beth's teaching contract would soon end. Another separation. More adjustments. Threatening and captivating adventures reveal the heartaches and joys of real pioneer life...wagon caravans of starving people rumbling through frontier territory. Fear of Indian uprisings, drought, plagues of grasshoppers, and the faith and commitment of people shouldering heavy burdens in a common bond of love. Ever present and strengthening their arms to hold each other up is love's silent song.

When Silence and Sound Collide, Senses Explode Barrett I'm deaf. What most people view as a disadvantage, I see as an advantage. I feel my way through life in my 1969 Ford Fairlane. The vibrations and speed sustain me, the race track is where I dominate. I thought racing was all I needed to survive, but I was wrong. Presley Music is my life. I inhale the melody and breathe in the lyrics. That was until I met someone that opened my eyes to a new culture. Who knew silence was all it would take for me to really experience music?

With Lawayne's introverted but confident ways, he unearthed his most prominent source of communication and expression, which is best released through writing and music. "Silent Song" is a collected reflection of the Southern gentlemen's instinct, intuition, sentiment, and wisdom he kept bottled and derived into poetic pieces. Having the urge to release the ambush of thoughts and emotions, Catrell Lawayne appended his childhood passion in poetry with his ability to compose and construct a lyrically poetic book of art that freed his soul. A caged bird with clipped wings and a song to sing is a cage of power awaiting to be free, he sings in a tone that only he can hear until his confidence is rebuilt. Intact with confidence, Lawayne finally flies as his soul align with readers and listeners of the world. "He's the soul speaker and the subtle singer. All he does is high frequency. Gravity is not his teacher. He said to step wide so your dreams can meet you. Live before you die, be more than just a dreamer."

She’s thirty-two, musically gifted, vivacious, and in love with Patrick Harrold, the voice teacher who hired her to play piano for his collection of off-kilter vocal students. Indeed, Samantha Eliot has long dreamed of devoting her life to music and song. But there’s a problem. She can’t speak, let alone sing. And she hasn’t been able to since a terrible accident took her voice at the age of seven. Truth be told, she has two additional problems. She’s never met—but is presently searching for—her birth mother. And the man she loves may, in fact, give up teaching voice, therefore no longer requiring her services. Can she rectify the second and third of these three problems, even though she must live with the first? Also featuring a collection of hilarious voice students with issues of their own, Samantha’s Silent Song speaks to those who have made an honest attempt, but failed, at fully realizing their dreams.

The Song in the Silence is the story of overcoming atrocities through the grace of God. The Song is the Son of God and his compassion as He carries us through the fiery turmoil of our lives, giving us shalom. Ancient musical instruments are used as the medium of telling the story in this book. They evoke powerful emotions each a synchronization of the orchestra of Heaven as they culminate in a triumphant climax of survival. The Silence is the blackness of despair. Written from the very trenches of psychotic mania and deep depression it mirrors the mind as it surfaces for recovery. This book speaks of hope and life abundant. I applaud the author for daring to share the history of profound pain and suffering. In doing so this book will encourage others with similar history to come out of hiding... - Brigid K ...the revelation will help bring a much-needed healing to millions who will read this book. To God be the glory great things He has done. - J.K.A

Lex Perry had it all. Fame. Fortune. A once-in-ten-lifetimes love with a brilliant, beautiful, battle-scarred goddess. And an addiction that was done sharing his attention. He survived. His fall from grace never stopped fans from throwing money and panties at him. All he lost for his weakness was the heart Gin—the woman, not the booze—took with her when she left.
