Sssshhhh!

A wealth of meaning can be found

within two letters, barely sound.

 

A breeze through leaves.

A slithering snake.

Water on shingle that laps a lake.

 

A softly, soothing lullaby.

The end of a secret.

The start of a lie.

 

A Chinese whisper.

A smoking gun.

The turning page of a story begun.

 

Astonishments laughter.

Admonishments pain.

The Wit’s last resort

and the Fool’s refrain
