Hello Mystery Writer!
How I love the silence! It always welcomes me... But it has also been known to jar me back to reality. What an exceptionally well-crafted poetic offering! Makes one think = always a good thing! :)

Best Wishes!

    Oh my goodness - what an awesome review (and bright stars to end the evening!)... thank you, Lady Diane!! ;) :) This was last night's thoughts as the house 'rang' with silence all around me... sigh. But there was sunshine today!! ;) :) Thank you again, my friend, and have a wonderful Wednesday! ;)

For many, such feeling ARE reality. The mind can be a lonely place, for in your mind you are truly alone. Your five - seven - nine poem says a lot in fifteen words. And, your words flow very nicely and were a pleasure to read. Good luck in the contest.

Very passionate writing, and very thought provoking for such a limited amount of syllables allowed. The image is very unique, and seems to enhance your words. Good luck in the contest!

I think this is a good entry for the 5-7-9 writing prompt.
This short verse tells of whispers of hope in the silence.
Well told. I wish you luck with the contest.

Whoa! Anonymous author.
This is a powerhouse of a 5-7-9.

It says so much about hopes, dreams, who is there listening. It is a poem that I see both light and dark, right and wrong, good and bad.
Your use of the background color enhances that.
Well done. Good luck.
Many blessings, MB

A very well-written 5-7-9 poem about the silence that welcomes our whispers of hope that sometimes screams to stifle them and reveal our mindless thoughts.

A deepish poem you've written. For sure silence can be calming - or threatening, frightening. Mothers with several kids value it hightly. But for a lonely person - no one to depend on - it can be hard.
good job.
