Subtle Changes
Subtle change is taking place beneath a subtle smile.
The handwritings on the wall have suggestive style.
Subtle change is taking place beneath a subtle voice.
Sonatas once in whisper are fallen from choice.
Subtle change is taking place beneath a subtle frown.
Photographs once on display have been taken down.
Subtle change is taking place beneath a subtle mien.
Chaste demeanors once demur are faintly obscene.
Subtle change is taking place beneath a subtle glance.
Adulations once enjoyed have looks of askance.
Subtle change is taking place beneath a subtle word.
Cryptic reports once spoken are almost unheard.
Subtle change is taking place beneath a subtle smile.
The handwritings on the wall have suggestive style.
