Silent Response
 

 



Captivating all the
divergent eyes with dignity


Riding the waves
of passage, bathed in falling shadows


Scrutinized without
resounding echoes of the spoken word


Internalized with
certain glee, more an afterthought


Unseen gossamer wings
fluttering to defeat the prevailing breezes


Against determined
head winds resolve digs ever deeper


Unlike tilted wastrels
divesting excess baggage like broken dreams


Propensity for descriptions
erratically colored, stoically pronounced


Black and white seen
in an encompassing haze of mitigating hues


Creator may never know
the absolute whiteness of a silent ruse
is ultimately deafening


Submitted for the Phrase/Theme Multi-challenge


'quiet dignity'

'an afterthought'

'falling shadows'
