SHALL WE ?.
We lived through a blaze of debate-soaked relationship
mindless of Hearing's gold worth.
We fell into muddles of shut-eyed raking as dissension
blindly aimed besting each word.
We blithely insisted on biased ideas, winner-related led
change to pretentious Self-talk.
We rankled ourselves toward empty ground and Regret
denied, Ego raised storm-force.
Tho' love's deepest non-sound got somehow mislaid in
truth it relates to quiet heard.
Shall we reconstruct silence to give Us a reminder that
minds can speak without a word ?

A fine write Fay.
Small we! O my days what a read, the love that words can fail but yet some how you prevail... How tender your vibration must be, thank you kindly for this pleasure indeed!
Oh’ how I envy your pen and your keyboard.. Like the late great L.N Cohen wrote.... ‘and her fingers, like a weavers, quick and cool’
Neville
Yes minds can write to each other.

Power in your words Fay. Delightfully composed, delightfully received.
Ex animo, Alan
There is definitely something to "Silence is Golden", and you wrote about it beautifully. As always!
Oh for contentment! That knowing togetherness bred of love trust and respect. Oft the aftermath of the intellectual skirmishes of besting whilst getting to know and test the other.
