“Speech is of Time, Silence is of Eternity.”
Speech is the sound
I miss most, must turn up the volume, must
Listen full attention
Ears as echo chamber, tinnitus, white
Noise lub-dubbing on a mistuned frequency
Conversation, so often now, just misconnection.
Even so, silence is still the gilded one.
An acrostic and just 44 words for Lillian’s quadrille word prompt: Silence. The epigraph is proverbial [source]
