Silence: Words not spoken,
Songs never sung
Unfettered, fly to the light

 

Dedicated to my older brother!

    Beautiful, Becca! I’m unclear on the context, though – is this an homage to a strong and silent kind of guy, or a farewell to him (fly to the light)? Hopefully the former, and not the latter! *hugs*

    Love this! It could describe my best friend. He’s the strong silent type.

    Becca, would love to know more about your brother. He certainly must be wonderful to inspire such a lovely poem. Amy
