Besma Riabi Dziri Poet Rictameter

Silence

Silence
                           Sound of dismay
                  A dark self in fright leashed
             Mighty hearts meet its perfection
         Weary souls seek to leak imperfection
                  Illusive shield of protection
                   Danger zone when coded
                            A dire warning
                                  Silence
                                    *****
                                  Silence
                            Lovers retreat
                    Music for thirsty souls
             The realm of every poet's muse
     A wondrous tune, heart of Nature echoed
       The womb where wisdom is conceived
                    Beauty never perceived
                          Sweet harmony
                                   Silence

Paul Callus November 20, 2018 at 1:37 PM Silence is the coin, and you get us to view both sides of it, Besma. Some say silence is golden; others see it as a sign of discontent. Silence is what I look for when I need to concentrate and curl up comfortably in my own little world!

You capture me with the breathtaking beauty of your expressions of silence in all its reflective facets of emotions and wisdom. Silence, music for thirsty souls, is as your poetry, honey for my hungry heart - golden and always satisfying to my soul. A gem of beauty and inspiration from your unique and ever shining pen. Warmest wishes, love and hugs, my lovey friend.. ~Susan Susan Ashley November 19, 2018 at 8:14 PM Thank you for your beautiful sentiments, my dearest friend, Besma. I completely understand about your responsibilities taking you away from your passion, for the same does happen to me as well.. just know that your lovely and inspiring presence has been missed and your return is always eagerly hoped for, my wonderful friend.
