SILENCE BECOMES YOU
by John W Townsend → (All Poetry by John W Townsend)

Some women have a way without words, at least until it is appropriate, and only then do they speak. Such are almost iconic, for their power is their silence.


Poem Artwork

If I had a word

that describe your demure

it would be your silence

amid lifes many fascades,

how you nuture respect

for yourself with ease

without degrading

anothers need.

It is not wilful

nor is it contempt

more a dignified balance

when reason is less,

you listen

acknowledge

without a word

yet nothing slips by unheard.

Silence becomes you

better than a Queen

for yours is not position

you are seeking,

you search for resolution

observed across your brow

as you ponder in silence

until you break that silence vow.

A good listener is hard to find.

A well-deserved complementary poem for women that I've observed who so beautifully do a shoe describe with elegance and respect.
