Winged Warrior Poet Rhyme

Exiting Echoes In the Mist

Exiting Echoes in the Mist

Of the voices never heard with the silence slowly stirred
Tempest storms of their eyes darkened clouds in the skies
Of the silent whispers slurred vacant voices valiantly resist
Of the existing echoes in the mist…

Sanitariums do sustain broken thoughts of a banished brain
Endless thunder within the core wounded words to explore
Tangled tongues in the drain where lachrymal lakes do exist
Of the existing echoes in the mist…

Murmurs move thru empty waves slumberous are the slaves
Unaccepted utterance to moan hanging hearts turn to stone
Standing by their graves with phantom screams in their midst
Of the existing echoes in the mist…

Sounds of sadness in frozen air chilling cries abandoned prayer
Can you hear the voices speak modulations of their mystique?
Can you feel vibrations flare in collapsing fingers to make a fist?
Of the existing echoes in the mist…

Kim Rodrigues December 12, 2018 at 4:54 AM Tangled tongues in the drain where lachrymal lakes do exist...great line. Love the opener that sets the stage. Emotive, alliterative, well-expressed sadness. You certainly were most deserving of first place!

Brandy Nicole December 8, 2018 at 9:50 PM Your voice is heard, my friend- through these beautiful words you have penned. The world is a better place, because of people like you. Congratulations on this win. Love and Peace. ~ Brandy

Silent One December 8, 2018 at 10:03 AM A very sad reality of life, one so many ignore.. Your words speak to the compassionate ones... Congratulations on your first place in the contest.. Just to point something out in regards to '7th of 11', a contest judge has no control of the order when placing numerous people in on position.. Your poem was first equally with the other 11 or so...

Carolyn Devonshire December 5, 2018 at 10:17 AM I believe the voices and spirits of all who once lived still resound, WW. And there are also the "silent whispers" of those who suffer in solitude. I love your use of alliteration and vivid imagery throughout this insightful verse. Sending winning wishes to you, my friend. Hugs, Carolyn

Constance La France December 5, 2018 at 10:14 AM Winged, you have penned a very deep and emotional write for the contest, yes I hear the voices that echo in the mist, well done and a winner to me ~

Anne-Lise Andresen December 3, 2018 at 2:55 AM - The whole world hears it ... it is a endless thunder, W.W. - An excellent write for this contest, good luck :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

Brandy Nicole December 2, 2018 at 8:15 PM If one voice is heard, in the deep, the dark abyss- around the terror of it all. If one is saved from abuse, of any kind. Then- that is better than none. (We need all voices heard) The world is filled with so many doing wrong- simply believing it is right. It is very wrong. Keep shining your light my dear friend. I am with you. Love and Hope. ~ Brandy
