Notes About The Poem

original format

 in the pause
     — beauty is still,
           and as moments gently move
               embracing the rush . . . 
  
        the air  holds a soft   h u s h.


  
    in gentle breaths   
words  wait  to  whisper— 
           a timeless melody we know . . .
                         the closeness of
                                       forever love.

         lingering in the calm
                     creates a longing for 
                             a tender touch,
                
             and— a delicate 

                             echo

in the pause
     — beauty is still,
           and as moments gently move
               embracing the rush . . .

words  wait  to  whispera timeless melody we know . . .
                         the closeness of
                                       forever love.

         lingering in the calm
                     creates a longing for 
                             a tender touch,

A beautifully shaped concrete lyric: its widening pauses, airy spacing, and gradual drift into “echo” let the visual form embody the poem’s stillness. The soft musical language and intimate closing create a tender sense of love suspended beyond time.

Warm and reflective. It delivers you to those tender moments from days bygone. It helps me appreciate the quiet where only our hearts spoke.
