QUATRAIN: SILENCE by FREDERIC FAIRCHILD SHERMAN

First Line: HER WEARY HEAD POISED ON ONE UPRAISED HAND
Last Line: WHAT THOUGHT IS HIDDEN IN HER ACHING HEART.
Subject(s): GRIEF; SILENCE; SORROW; SADNESS;
Her weary head poised on one upraised hand
Sweet Silence whom we all love sits apart,
And none of us who would can understand
What thought is hidden in her aching heart.
