Silence

Silence seeks

Silence stirs

Silence speaks

Silence shelters

Silence sees

sojourns

solitude

suffering

Silence’s spirit

surrounds

soothes

saves

Silence sings

I wrote this poem in response to the Tautogram Challenge organized by Vocal. A tautogram is a poem in which every word starts with the same letter. I chose the letter "S" because I love its sound. "Silence" is also one of my favorite words.

That's it for today! Thank you for reading!

    The longed for then for me (with my mental illness) sleep can be a trap when either lacking, broken or unmoving. ‘Silence sees sojourns solitude suffering …’ Speaks profoundly to me! Pauline 🌸
