we,
found warmth,
in whispers-
unspoken on,
those cold winter days.
we found a piece of our-
sunshine in unsaid letters,
colours or lack of it never,
bothered our being as a grey scarf*-
unexpressed balance emoted enough.
Poetry form :- Etheree ( 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10 syllables)
P.S :- Grey scarf* :- I had read that the colour “grey”- represents balance, so used the same in my poem to convey , “grey scarf “as unexpressed balance.

The next time I wrap my grey cashmere scarf round my shoulders … I certainly am going to feel ‘balanced.’ Love your poem.

Gray can be so soothing… if everything is black.
