lyrical accessories

Dear Silent One, so glad to return with my heartiest congrats for your win in Brian's contest. It's an honor and a pleasure to share the podium with you, my inspiring friend. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

This is the first time i have listened to this song - how touching and how true are their words, you don't have to say you love me , I know because of your conduct towards me, not through 'the use of lyrical accessories'. This write has such depth Silent One and when read conjures up 'a gospel language where speech is unnecessary', great write. Hugs blessings, Jennifer.

Dear Silent One, first of all, I love that song (and the video).. it's one of my all time favs! Second, your golden pen spills profound ink upon the grateful poetic page. Your imagery is rich and thought-provoking. Third, as always, actions speak louder than words despite "the use of lyrical accessories." Your potent poetic finesse leaves me in awe my inspiring friend. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

Deep- some poetry is more than just words... a pleasure to read, very beautiful

SO, I loved reading this and thinking of a waterfall at the same time. It has the feeling of swimming amidst the falling water. The last stanza seems to say that actions are more valuable than words. If that analysis is correct, then I give you much credit for the way you expressed that thought. Placing the information in a puzzle makes it all the more exciting to discover and contemplate if we're up to it.

Dear Silent One, Another profound penning. Wow! I especially liked the "body adopts a gospel language, where speech is unnecessary unless expressed through true dialects of conduct", very powerful..

Ah another trophy win this will be i bet! Ah silent one you leave me in awe captivated by the way you weave words and make them flow in such eloquence in such a meaningful manner. I love the opening lines the most “ veiled vowels” and also how you’ve written “ like a lost refrain in a poem assembled with enjambment metaphorical reflections of a reflective metaphor portray a m i r a g e less sincere than silence”somehow it resonates and hits so strong as it conveys such depth

An epic and unique reminder that words alone doesn't move mountains.. a message brought across in your unique way SO. Love this and that song of Extreme (one of my favorites)

A very creative poem, Silent One. Wonderfully written my friend.

reflections of a reflective metaphor portray a m i r a g e less sincere than silence…great!

This elegantly written, meaningful poem, conveys its message so well, Silent One. The music is wonderful, too. This is a fave. :)

Dear friend Silent One, your poetic work was mesmerizing and made me speechless. The poem nicely delved into the complexity of syntax and its power to convey social and intimate levels. The final stanza hit home fervently with its influential message on the power of silence in conveying thoughts. The emphasis on real expression struck a chord with me, outlining the power of honest discussion. Impressive and pleasant. A fave to my list.

The addition of the YouTube video with music is a pleasant enhancement to your poetry, Silent One. You express your thoughts so poetically and the music takes those feelings and emotions deep into the heart of the reader / listener. Love is best feel, and less heard, more behavioral than knowledgeable. Thanks for sharing your depth with us through your poetry, my friend. A FAV for my list. Bill

A rewarding journey through lyrical accessories, SO--a unique theme brilliantly delivered to convey the essence of your message, as you so eloquently state in your final stanza. When it is real--words are not necessary.

"metaphorical reflections of a reflective metaphor portray a m i r a g e less sincere than silence value blossoms when the body adopts a gospel language" -- Brilliant writing, my friend. The treasure of any write -- (anything) -- if treasures be, are more in how words, music (interpersonal relationships, endearing promises) vibrate, play upon the spirit, enhancing positive archetypes, eternal and immortal.

My Dearest Silent One, Your words dance like punctuation walking on eggshells, delicately traversing the intricate landscape of language and expression. The words you craft with amazing phrases is simply mesmerizing. Each line feels like a revelation, inviting me to explore the depths of language and its nuances. Your exploration of assonance and consonance as twin forces, the rhythmic meter of thunder with lightning, and the metaphorical reflections interspersed throughout the piece leave me in awe of your poetic prowess. But what truly captivates me is your stark reflection on the value of silence and the gospel language of conduct. Your assertion that true dialects need no lyrical accessories reminding me of the pure power of authenticity and genuine expression. Silent One, your words have enriched my life in ways I can scarcely articulate. - Blessings, Daniel

ahh ae i ou waves without an island. The lyrical accessories are like angles of a vantage point, I agree, and also like minions whispering secret colors to enchant in that gospel. I imagine the Disney Hercules Movie, were they deities or sirens? singing about the gospel truth ! And the minions of Hades were the best part of the movie. Dialects of rebel conduct.
