A Quiet Revolution

Poetry by StuartOctober 15, 2020October 15, 2020

A quiet revolution is what we seek

Not an explosion of anger or threats

🌑

Compassion and love at its core

Not a maelstrom of hate or envy

🌑

The silent majority as the vanguard

Not the horde of screaming agitators

🌑

Peace and restraint at the orbit

Not a barrier of intolerance or disharmony

🌑

A quiet revolution is what we seek

I’m not sure I’ve ever heard of a quiet revolution, but I do understand your point here.

Reminds me, not in the same context, sorry, of Smokey Robinson (& the Miracles?) song “Quiet Storm” (used to be the lead tune starting WHUR’s … something or other hour… every day/week? (HUR is Howard University Radio, in DC…)
