The Stillness of My Heart

The Stillness of my Heart If love be not thy name of the true sparrow's sweet songs sung Mountains not melodically moved, nor rivers recite your name Then a stillness in my heart erupts the silence in my soul 14- 16- 15 Syllable count May.26.2018 Sijo Poem Sponsored by: Heidi Sands
