A Silent Language Poem by Soran M. H
A Silent Language
Sulphur
Is waiting to explode-
Let the Sulphur sleep,
Let rivers
Travel abroad in whiteness
To the breast’s source.
Expel the dark spirit shadow
From the mind
Until the streams
Know the way for themselves,
And stones
Change chatter to silence-
So the earth
May hear stones breathing.
When the beach is quiet
The Earth
May look after all its spirits.
I don’t know
How to accommodate
The days’ restlessness
The nights’ lack of resolve, leaving
A mournful winter
And the sadness of flowers
under the canopy
Of refugee poetry.
1999
Dear Robert M Smith you are right in the silence environment we can understanding the reality of thing far away from the war of media, then we be able to create and understanding each others, thanks for your lovely comment
Well done, thanks Madam Susan، you are right, here silently we can feel all conflicts and struggling in our miserable world, by reading the language of things, By taking advantage of the characteristics of things and employing them inside the poem, I was waiting for this amazing comment long time ago, Many Thanks
There is so much beauty of expression in this poem- it cannot be written in a silent language because it speaks so strongly. It certainly did speak strongly to my soul.
Thank you, Rose, for this exceptional reading of a text in which things speak while the poet remains silent. Wishing you continued health and happiness.
What a powerful word 'Sulphur ' ! It captures perfectly the explosive threat of violence . The image of sadness of flowers lingers in the mind . Wonderful verses.
Grief speaks through physical and emotional paralysis rather than spoken laments. A beautiful yet deeply poignant poem that intelligently explores trauma, emotional.healing, and the psychological displacement caused by conflict . Brilliant write as always, Soran.
Excellent Poem, silence is the most powerful language which one can use to communicate effectively. By simply looking at the face, situation, and the changes in the nature one can understand what message the other person/thing/nature wants to convey... As you rightly said: When the beach is quiet The Earth May look after all its spirits.....Sublime.5 Stars
