OctPoWriMo Day 10 – The place where silence had a voice

Photo by Sue Vincent

THIS WEEK’S WORDS come from “At Sea” by Ada Cambridge: keyhole, hear, menace, sleeping, phantoms, swaying, rope, cheer, creep, welter, quiet, winks

The place where silence had a voice
Where one hears the quiet by choice
Look at the keyhole and one froze
Swaying rejoice, swaying rejoice

Phantoms of the past all creeping
Menace of pain when sleeping
Time for crying or for cheering
Welter feeling, welter feeling

Rope of hope against a calm sea
Silhouettes of birds as they flee
The sun winking and full of glee
Along the quay, along the quay*
