Notes About The Poem

Filling My Silence

His eyes were like beautiful fables Sparkling and shining with hope Lighting the heart so it could cope Filling darkness with joy that enables His music breathed laughter inside In rhythms and melodies so bright A prayer of love that feels so right Publishing grace wherever I abide His passion sends hues of kindness Painting my world in blushing rose Assuring my soul that love is timeless His smile lingers even through blindness Coloring my life in vibrant prose A love so alive it fills up my silence This is a Crybin – a variation of Petrarchan sonnet, Italian sonnet(noun) a sonnet consisting of an octave with the rhyme pattern abbaabba, followed by a sestet with the rhyme pattern cdecde or cdcdcd.

Well, ya(I) learn something every day! Bet I couldn’t even find the category of Orem in a textbook much less carry it into the exquisite wording and ease you gifted us with here. Splendid pen, Gina! Be well
