Silence

Silence is the best companion

When small talk saturates the room 

The excuses have all been spun

Silence is the best companion 

Knows your soul more than anyone 

Socializing feels like a tomb

Silence is the best companion

When small talk saturates the room 

~*~

Triolet quadrille (structured 44 words) written for dVerse Poets Pub prompt of silence.

    A very nice little piece. As pointless chatter fills up the world, silence is an increasingly rare treasure.
