Shades Of Silence Poem by Cynthia Buhain-baello

Shades Of Silence



Shades of Silence maybe unfeeling gray,
Or muted white with no words to say,
Cowering beige or blindfolded pink,
Subdued in denial, unable to think.

Shades of Silence could be deaf green,
Indifferent to the chaos that it has seen,
Uncaring blue or perhaps controlled red,
Dark as black with no tears for the dead.

Shades of Silence in orange maybe
Or in mixed-up brown denying History,
Following like sheep in lemon yellow-
Destroying the past they used to know.

Silence has many colors, but they're not nice.
Speechless and sightless as closed eyes.
Silence to evil colors much of Consent,
Cowardice, Submission, and ultimate Lament.

Silence has many colors, but they're not nice. Speechless and sightless as closed eyes. Silence to evil colors much of Consent, Cowardice, Submission, and ultimate Lament.... great theme. It is a beautiful poem on silence having stunning expression. Nice penmanship. I appreciate this poem. Thank you dear Cynthia madam for posting this poem with us.
