Quiet and Still

My dear friend, come on come on near, my hand to hold. They are just poisoning my brain with these hands up in the air the frustration and despair coming from the crowd’s welfare. I stay quiet and still to fight so my friend please hold me tight. My close friend just be around for I discerned you from the crowd. Ugly voices produce just noise but your own calming voice and your own touch of warm pulls my soul to rejoice. So my friend I bow your skill for remaining quiet and still. Dear friend just come to see come and see I make a plea. They left me here to dry punishment for not comply with the guilty of their words when they throw them from the sky. So my friend stay quiet and still just on you I can rely.

This is quite an extraordinary poem. I'm sure it can be perceived many ways. I kept picturing Christ on the cross, but those who are "Quiet and Still" have often been a refuge in the storm of noise for me. Your work has a distinctive character. It is far from "ordinary."

Ordinary may, , Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
