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 6-10-2020 Swap The Verse Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Joseph May
