Quivering Hands

Quivering Hands

A Poem by Paramount

Quivering hands move ever so slightly over the basin of memory

An utterance is spoken but heard by no one else

The tremors of a beating heart align with the expectation that awaits reality

Dark shadows glare in the distance

Waters glide with ripples as a mist overtakes the moonlight

The trees are listening ever so intently

And not a cloud is in the night sky

Once the voice finishes, the echoes take over

As the wind carries them to their new home

Into the ears of those ready to receive the instruction
