LITANY TO SILENCE (SUN Writing Essential LITANY)

Kneeling alone in an empty Cathedral

S I L E N C E

The holy hush after a fierce storm

S I L E N C E

While wedding vow questions asked

A Memorial offering plate passed

Memories that forever last

S I L E N C E

Watching a golden spectacular sunset

S I L E N C E

National Spelling Bee question asked

S I L E N C E

A final word at a loved one's grave

Honoring 'Unknown Soldiers' so brave

Stunned by Calvary's great price Christ paid

S I L E N C E
