within acoustic shadow invisible to the world a man of Silence hostiles shudder of his life's strength , figurative mind wealth sentiment beneath his fingers touch flourish draped in dreams 1/5/2020
I had to write this after the contest without his knowledge. This poem was written in tribute to Silent One. A man who sees beauty in everything. He articulates his poetry with imagery, deep emotions within him. I am very proud to know him not only as a poet, but as a friend, a brother, a son. He has been there through my deep hurt and enjoyable times of life the past 4 years. Thank you Silent One.
