Serenity

Quote Prompt № 21

Noise. My life is loud. I keep saying this. But saying this is noise.

I would like to post a banner in the Oval Office with this quote (not that it would be read). I would like to put up a bulletin board in my classroom (and I think I will today!) with this quote. Most of all, I would like to send this memo to my brain:

Speak only if it improves upon the silence. — Mahatma Gandhi

This is a Sky Collection quote prompt. Write something about silence. Write something loud. Write something that should be spoken out loud. Write something that should be whispered. Write something, anything.

It can be a poem, short story, essay, or whatever creative expression you wish. I cannot wait to see what you come up with this time! Please submit drafts to Sky Collection only, and link this post to your submission! Please include the genre of your work in the tags: poetry, fiction, or nonfiction.

Because of the increased interest in becoming a writer with Sky Collection, I have new submission guidelines. If you would like to become a writer here, please email me a draft of your work at [email protected]. We welcome poetry, fiction, and nonfiction and all sub-genres!

You may write for any of the previous Quote Prompts at any time! Just make sure to link back to the specific prompt so I can feature your work in our collection.

I have loved reading your poetry and thoughts on these prompts. Please keep them coming! — Samantha
