What do you think this poem is about?

Silence

Contemplation, searching for my soul
Silence encompassing all
Alone but not in solitude
Silence giving fortitude

My ego-thoughts trying to prop up
Silence makes them stop
Soul is what I’m searching for
Silence, silence I adore

Connecting to my soul
Silence winning after all
Thoughts connect with high above
Silence fills my soul with love

Conscience conquering my mind
Silence makes it look so kind
Soul and conscience hand in hand
Silent wish to never end

Grateful heart joins in
Silence makes it all akin
Thanking God for this silent contemplation
Thanks for silence, thanks again

    Hans, this poem really speaks to me. I feel that we write our best when we are still and one with God. It's only then we able to express the things our divine nature wants to say.10+

    This is a wonderful poem and really makes you think about how often do you get silence to think and to reflect? I felt the bliss of silence in this poem. Very well done. Brava!
