A noisy world sparks nothing more-
In tears of a child,
In the cradle of the mother,
In the heart of a lover,
In the faith of a believer,
In the courage of a soldier,
In the trust of a friend,
- but silence.
A thousand words can’t describe
one moment of silence.
In the end, we are what we
wove in silence.
Author notes
silence is what in falling drops
silence is what in the wandering winds
silence is what in the far of horizons
silence is what in the darkness of night
silence is what in the breaking morning lights
its our emotions which are noisy yet silence is what best describes them
silence is what will be everything

Silence is golden

Sound advice here...like it a lot... esp this line
we are what we
wove in silence.
Perhaps after 'but silence' there should not be a full stop since there is a continuation of the 'silence' concept in the following lines. Another hyphen could be used or a comma too.
I would also advise changing the line after 'in the end' for more dramatic effect.
Hope these help.

Should wove be woven?
The last stanza is my favorite.
Brings everything to a close quite nicely.
Best of luck in the contest you've entered.
