To celebrate this month's release of Another 365 Days of Poetry which released on the 4th. Links to the collection can be found at: https://books2read.com/u/bo2Y0a .   A Houseful of Secrets   Written on June 13, 2017, for the May 13 entry of Another 365 Days of Poetry , this piece is about dealing with our fears—at least, when they are all too real.   I would not whisper if I were you; I would not even speak. I would close my eyes tight-shut, and I would not risk a peek. I would not risk a peek, no matter what I heard, not even when something touched me. I would pray that it passed by, for this old house is ancient. This house its secrets keeps, and I would keep my eyes tight-closed in the hope that I would wake, when once I’d gone to sleep.   Cover art is by Jake at JCaleb Design, and links to 366 Days of Poetry can be found on Books2Read at: https://books2read.com/u/bo2Y0a.
