Silent Love

When you hug your child
Seeing the smile on their face

The comfort from a friend
When life gives you pain

The silence of a prayer
That God only hears

Seeing your family bond together
Always helping each other

The love of your country 
Filling your heart with pride

Silent love in so many places
It's always there to comfort us

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist,and I’d love to discuss the possibility of bringing this poem to life if you're ever interested.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
