Deafening thunder,
cries from down under
Voices of silence
—lost in the wind
(Villanova Pennsylvania: July, 2020)
cracking the quiet space, toddler with seeds
feeds ostrich through car’s window,
giggles with jocund joy

All is silent today on this little site,
But I did receive a message of light,
I bid you all safe dreams and goodnight..
The moon cries tonight,
For all the fallen,
My lips purse against yours,
It’s so forbidden,
The justified touch,
Shhh…
In my quiet place
Where no one else may enter
I alone may speak
To unbury the words sought
Within my mind, I find peace
One quiet hour
that's all He asks me to do
meditating once a day
contemplating Bible scenes
praying for wisdom
what the blessed know
that the road toward Jericho
be pave with gold
yet another
quiet place
for the soul
whispering snowflakes
caress the silent night
wonderment at dawn
to see trees crowned in white
jewels of a quiet storm
''Quiet lake, mountain retreat --sit tight for the sundown peacefully. There, presence will visit you with all its eminence.''
Like a lone flower
in the silence of still air—
a graceful young girl,
modest in her quiet glow,
unseen by the insecure.

Monocrostic (Birthday of Kyla Suyat)
Your touch remains a ghost
upon my skin,
The sweetest war that we
could never win,
I bless the love before the
tears begin.
your tiger can snore
through the wayside and justice
her aether will be
(Weekly Magnetic Poetry Challenge • August 10–16, 2026)
we hide our quiet deceit`
wrap lies in silk to make them sweet;
then gasp when truth, with sharpened feet,
dances on our pride.

Saffron swirled silence
Why holler or shout
Why scream or cry out
What good will it do to start a riot
Stand your ground ~ but say it quiet
the curve of your lips
gentle and rose petal pink
smile like you love me
hand on my arm tenderly
rest your head on my shoulder
High atop the mountain's peak
Where the wind does softly speak
Brushed against the midnight flower
Locked up in her mighty tower.
Zero stress being my goal
Every fiber of me at peace
Nothing matters but the present

~when you speak to someone and they won't listen to you just be quiet~
9/3/20
written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2020©
Sometimes
You can only scream
In your head
Before a vastness
Of butterflies
Unfold autumn wings
And soars swiftly
Toward winter.
In the hush of dusk,
Your name rests upon my lips
Soft as falling light.
Even when shadows grow long,
My heart returns home to you.
As I sit and wonder why, one who dreams, she never cries
She always smiles but yet I doubt,
That anyone knows what she's smiling about.
a quiet evening
overseen by brilliant moon
listen to your heart
beautiful silence
where fireflies light your way
your soul relaxes
Hear…
before speaking the words
unwritten
Speak…
after writing the words
unheard
(Hotel Majestic Saigon, Vietnam: January, 2014)
