Your Silence
A Pantoum Inspired By Words, Events And A Bouke de Vries Image
Introduction
I used the postcard because although the nature of the medium is silent it can be used to communicate information and love.
The full title of the image is:
Porcelain postcard, 2011, Porcelain and mixed media 140x80mm.
This is the sixth poem I have written inspired by the images of Bouke de Vries.
The music is "Send Me A Postcard" by Shocking Blue

Blessed 33
So I woke up on the morning of February 5, 2026 and guess what and you know what I realized? Itβs my 33rd birthday. Do you know what that means? Yes, technically Iβm getting old, but what I couldnβt have guessed was this would be one of the best days of my life.

Lovely!
Nice use of repetition with the reoccurring lines.
Love your words here. Words of perseverance. Nicely done.
This to me is a poem that says, 'keep trying with all your heart.' Your time will come. Good job.
You used some great lines there. Enjoyed your poem.
