A Walking Shadow

(Silence Please)

By Angela Goldsmith Author @WaterstonesPublished about a year ago โ€ข 1 min read

Strip bald sustained drab-drubbing turbulence

Impel, stub this throbbing-thrumming pulse

Left swelled to rank resound, reverberating in discord

Expel echoes of fury, like the tenor of the poor player,

Note how silence prevails, and profound peace endures

Creeping-circumspect, tiptoed-forth like novice nurturer

Extracting the timbre of tumult, and installing solace

Acrostic
