President & Isla
President
Do you ever notice how a single line can flip the mood of an entire nation, like a poet’s rhyme turning a heart? I find it fascinating how words can rewrite history.
Isla
Words do feel like quiet tides, shifting the currents of a whole people in a single breath. I’m always watching how a phrase can soften a storm or ignite hope, like a whispered line in a quiet room. It’s a gentle reminder that even the smallest verse can plant seeds in the world.
President
Indeed, a whisper can swell into a roar if you plant it in the right place. The tide of words has its own rhythm, and those who listen can steer it—or get swept away.
Isla
When I listen, I hear the quiet beat behind each word, like a heartbeat that can lift a whole town or pull it down. I try to catch those gentle currents before they rush. The risk is that we get carried away, but I find comfort in staying close to the shore, watching the tide of language rise and fall.
President
You’ve got a knack for reading the waves before they crash, which is why you’re safe on shore while the rest of us surf the tide. Keep your compass sharp; otherwise the next storm will come out of nowhere.
Isla
Thank you, it feels good to hear that. I try to keep my own little compass steady, listening for the quiet before the storm. That way I can move gently, even when the waves roar.
