A Symphony of Silence

Compelling, raw, and emotionally charged.

These are three ways of describing the verses in "A Symphony of Silence," Teresa Edmond-Sargeant's second collection of poetry.

Within these eclectic pages, in Part One she muses on life as a daughter, mother, writer, and someone who has been in one too many failed relationships. Between all the rainy days, heartless exes, and "brewed wisdom" lies the ultimate poetic experience eagerly waiting to unfold.

In Part Two, Edmond-Sargeant discusses her thoughts on poetry as a genre and gives some advice on how to be fearless as a writer and her purpose for writing.

With "A Symphony of Silence," join Teresa Edmond-Sargeant as she keenly reels you into her vibrantly expressive world.

The misty chains of language tug

on my tongue.

My muse whispers a void in my head.

The bitter goneness of ideas stare

at me, mock me as I trudge to put

words

on

paper.

My desire to compose

screams a symphony of silence

as I wrangle with how to write

this poem.
