Silence speaks sensually, unhindered by a fickle tongue, or miss spoken word. Her beauty transcends her muted world of quietude and introspection. And independent of sound her body-language expresses intimate fledgling feelings; despite having never heard laughter or the sound of a human voice. Her world widens with my touch, as my kiss ignites passion's tactile flame. For words cease to exist when two hearts communicate in perfect, tranquil, silence, like synchronized swimmers in a river of time. Others may doubt the strength of a love unspoken, but they'd be wrong to do so. For love is felt more oft than heard, as it tiptoes silently between two halves of a single shared soul.

Oh Emile, what a lovely poem so filled with your vivid imagery. I almost missed the reference to deafness. And you are so right - "love is felt more oft than heard" - such wisdom! Congratulations on your win! Good luck in the contest. Happy Easter. Stay well.
