Fear Silence Not
Kinsey Peterson said:

Nothing to fear in silence, aside from the sheer volume your own thoughts then create to occupy the space...

Goodness Neville, you always pull curiosity out of me. I quite wonder what knowing this woman would be like.

When I was in 6th grade I read the dictionary for free reading time because I had already read the entire library at the school. I still had to double check on this poem lol

Did my homework and googled entonox. In my naivete I opped for lamaze first time around, and must have had a memory lapse with the second, cause I went the same route again. It was all the rage 50 years ago. I suppose some of us just like doing it the hard way. Good write!

So true about the awkwardness of silence, the nature symbolism takes the fear out and brings mysteries ‘echoed’ … This is why I enjoy the essence of your poetry, Neville.

There was one hospital whose maternity room had 30 times the limit allowed airborne. And all I could imagine was her having contractions and in pain while everyone else is standing around laughing. Maybe it was a Monty Python skit?
What no Epidural?
Gave me a chuckle, this poem. I think the \"think of England\" line did it, good one. - Phil A.

You\'re the king of titles! Honestly, the only reason why I know what Entonox means (and I still went to the dictionary to make sure), is because my sister has had 2 kids and we joke about it! But, s&*@ pass the Entonox babe!!! I love it!

A breath of fresh air you are. Never heard of the stuff either (ether?). Google cleared the air for me.

I believe he wrote for a lover and she became well known, while he remained undiscovered,
Perhaps, she was a singer?
This raises all kinds of questions as to the identity of the two characters. A most enjoyable poem. - Phil A.

Silence is the most understanding and accepting, of all friends. Silence is a lifetime companion.

Very nice!! When I read the word litany immediately I thought...church! The best part though: \"for PR purposes\"...yep!

Not sure if you were her agent or her acolyte......
However I feel you did cover her adequately in so very few words.........

Suitably crossed and thus applause for this piece is suitable and a joy to relate. Real nice piece and salute to the reverent touch of phrase. Nice write.

Don\'t forget... you may see her image on the back of a pancake when you flip it, or in the rust on an old screen door, or waving at you from a cloud as it passes by.

Great lines Neville
\"For it is long
empty like discarded
worm casts\"
Such a great image. I also loved the lines
\"Filled only with echo’s
and the laughter
of long ago moments ..
Still occasionally
carried before the tides
and the winds
of yesterday’s gone ..
All true my friend

In a world that grows increasingly noisy, we seem to have lost an appreciation for the value of silence. You speak beautifully of all that it holds for us in this poem, just loved it!

Lovely writing )

I think silence is easy to sit with , if we are comfortable in ourselves and that which lives in our mind ( nice feelings /

So very true, so much within yourself can be heard in silence.

Ahhhh this is so beautiful, and true! Silence can be our best friend...if we\'re open, willing, and eager to explore! 💜

A scathing report of someone not worthy of a person like her. So sad.
Some people are not meant to be together. Too often it ends like this.
Enjoyed your poem. It was stark, and direct to the point. - Phil A.
