Silence
Silence
Such a beautiful noise
Sitting
There quietly
Waiting
To hear from dad
Time
I stop the babbling
Listen
For that still small voice
Hear
Just how kind he has been
Remember
I could never repay such a debt of love
Amazing
To think my brother thought so much of me
Refreshed
By the living water
Pleased
I have found this oasis in the desert
Secure
In the knowledge I will keep on returning
Silence
In communion with God
Such
A beautiful sound

I think its very nice. I like how you write the emotion, opinion, or verb, and then kind of justify it; Refreshed By the living water Pleased I have found this oasis in the desert Secure In the knowledge I will keep on returning. And how at the end there is kind of a bit of repetition. So yeah, I really like it Yaz x

To be honest I’d be

To be honest I’d be tempted to ‘borrow’ from S & G: Use such a beautiful ‘sound’ rather than ‘noise’ at the top and then use ‘It echoes in my soul’ or some such at the end where you have used - Such a beautiful ‘sound’.

A great first posting, I
