Whispering Walls

(# Haiku)

Pressing heads to stone

The walls whisper truths unknown

They don’t dare turn round

Mum, author and dentist is how I describe myself. I love creating pictures from words. Sometimes a painter, other times a weaver- words are my tool; trying to create something beautiful. When I was nine, my dad introduced me to audio books. I was hooked. With his guidance, I fell into a world where words became life simply by weaving them together. So here I am, living out my passion- reading and writing! Enjoy the ride with me 😁😁

Vivian, I love your Haiku poem. There is a certain mystery lingering in your words which encourages the reader to relate to the words. WOW!

I really like this haiku and photo (it reminds me of Eastern State Penitentiary).
Congratulations on being selected Colleen’s poet of the week. 🙂

    Oh–I guess it might sound like I had been incarcerated. No, never! It’s a historical site in Philadelphia now. I’ve only been there as a visitor, but it is very spooky, and I’m sure the walls do whisper.

      Haha. It’s fine. I probably often say or write things that have people wondering. 🙂
      But really, if you’re ever in Philadelphia, Eastern State is a cool place to visit.
