Silent Expressions Poem by lalitha iyer

Do they tell
any unforgettable tales
the blue skies
and the green leaves
the bulging clouds
and the petalling blooms
the Saga of Nature
unravelled by man
is always Silent and calm.

We proclaim
proud of our conquests
nature full of bounties
and wealth uncountable
truly a Sage
wise and intelligent
bustling with energy
goes on and on.

We research on treasures
but gems don't invite us to measure
true beauties
never sponsors
brimmed to the full
they are happy within
and when men find their paths
they too don't enquire
and traverse other's
strayed hearts.

A man is mightier
by the words lesser spoken
and the Silence more followed
then by the larger volume
of thoughts outflowed
aged wisdom speak only little
and the little too with subdued mettle.
