When crepuscular shadows loomed in a bay to grate upon this opulent view’s grandeur, my visceral thoughts reeled like windmills where breaths heaved low, desultory the mind. Gazing at Anger, doubts replayed a cynical past, in lone sojourn...winds hummed,” speak no evil” yet, penumbra of waves turned desultory. Until a hundred stars bathed my eyes whole, kindling exuberant rays, to console love’s blow; and jealousy faded, in homage to a halcyon moment. Silent One’s Contest "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" 2/01/2016

your words soften my heart like a damsel in need of a companion..... Your lines are sweeteners to a curious mind which is absolutely satisfied. There's this eagerness I have running to your pages and your reputation of meeting that expectation is beyond any form of appreciation or grading. Beyond 7 my friend!!
