“STRANGELY SILENT” by Bill Charles ~~~~ Last night the phone was strangely silent, perhaps it was because my eyes were asleep and my ears could not hear, yet I heard my thoughts, for they were wide awake and of you… They thought of times past and of loving caresses through the night, of times that may be and of embraces to come in the still of morning’s light… Yet last night the phone was strangely silent, and I ponder if it were only because my eyes were asleep… ~~~~ |

A powerfully simplistic description... sensitive, smooth and very tidy wording. Excellent poem! Grover. |

Bill, Yes, I agree. Very much enjoyed. "They thought of times past and of loving caresses through the night, of times that may be and of embraces to come in the still of morning’s light…" Sigh.. SG |
