Jeanne Mcgee Poet Quatrain

With Hushed Thoughts

In solitude,  I find calming breath between spaces
Emptiness filled without the sound it replaces
The silence against time in a rush to conclude
I find calming breath between spaces,  in solitude

With these hushed thoughts I give voice to creation
See ink form words full of haunting flirtation
Or quietly smooth out the lived-in rough knots
I give voice to creation with these hushed thoughts

Within sacred walls there are moments of aloneness
Times that life gives itself over to our fearlessness
Pen responds to the dawning light when magic calls
There are moments of aloneness within sacred walls

Aditi Mishra June 11, 2020 at 9:03 AM Calming breath between spaces in solitude....I could easily relate with your hushed thoughts. Those moments within sacred walls give us the time for introspection and for our muse. God bless you and much love Jeanne. Best wishes for the contest :) Jeanne Mcgee June 11, 2020 at 9:12 AM Hello Aditi...I'm happy we relate the same as I love reading your words too. Everyone needs a moment to tap their creative side. :D
