The Pause

Date added: 29/05/2020

THE PAUSE

Sentences, like people,
need spaces to breathe.
Between the full stop
and the Capital
lies    the pause.

Without the space,
sentences are breathless;
without the Sabbath,
life is restless;
without the pause,
the rest is lifeless.

Sentences, like God,
have a preferential option
for    the pause.
