Poem Closed Mouths

2024/12/16 Edited to

... Read morePoetry as an art form often captures the complexities of human emotion, and FredRick's 'Poem Closed Mouths' is no exception. In this piece, the poet delves into the nuances of silence and what it means to keep thoughts unexpressed. Silence can be both a refuge and a prison, an intricate dance between vulnerability and strength. Readers may find themselves resonating with the themes of unspoken emotions—perhaps reflecting on personal experiences where words failed to capture the depth of feeling. The impact of spoken word poetry has grown immensely in recent years, creating a platform for individuals to share their stories boldly. This poem not only navigates the silence but also seems to beckon the reader to acknowledge and embrace their inner voice. By engaging with such poignant themes, 'Poem Closed Mouths' invites an exploration of both the speaker's and the reader's relationship with silence. Additionally, the richness of poetic forms allows for a diverse interpretation of silence in our lives. As the art of poetry thrives on personal connection, FredRick’s work encourages readers to confront their own closed mouths and unvoiced thoughts, challenging us to make the unseen seen. Dive into the world of poetry, where every silence holds a story, and every word can be a revelation.

A dark image displays Psalms 141:3-4 from the NIV Bible, highlighted in pink. The text reads: "Set a guard over my mouth, LORD; keep watch over the door of my lips. Do not let my heart be drawn to what is evil so that I take part in wicked deeds along with those who are evildoers; do not let me eat their delicacies." Decorative sparkles and a flower outline are on the right, with a Lemon8 logo and username at the bottom.
We have to learn how to keep our mouths closed ✨
Meditation: Let us then, in the cadence of our days, pause and attune ourselves to the Spirit's prompting. May it guide us to stillness when silence is the vessel of wisdom or to words seasoned with grace when speech is called for. Our language, imbued with life and kindness, becomes an inst

Closed mouths don’t get fed!!!!!!
being humble doesn’t get you far. The people who brag, self-promote, and put themselves out there are usually the ones who win. Meanwhile, the humble ones stay overlooked. Confidence gets you further than humility ever will. Do you agree or do you think being humble still pays off in the long

Sometimes you just have to ask. Closed mouths don’t get fed. The worst someone can say is no, so why not shoot your shot? Opportunities don’t always fall in your lap. You open the door by asking.

Common ≠ optimal.
Common ≠ optimal. Babies actually sleep, breathe, and grow better when they can keep their mouths closed — and science agrees. Research shows nasal breathing supports better oxygen regulation, feeding coordination, and restful sleep. And parents deserve to know the signs no one talks about.

Original Poem - A Haunting I Know Too Well 🍄‍🟫
This poem is written from the point of view of one of my book characters—Wallace Zagar. Haunted by the voice of someone who broke him, Wallace speaks from beyond the grave, carrying pain that even death couldn’t silence. Sometimes the scars you can’t see are the ones that linger the longest.
