Silence Not Always Preferred. Poem by Gangadharan nair Pulingat..

In classrooms of schools
I learnt about silence
The teachers instructed us
To be silent in their classes
To be heard and learn lessons
Where they offered a bright future

In class rooms of old schools
Silence was a quality
Unquestioning was the importance
The classes went on smooth.

Years passed and we knows
The silence is not always welcomed
Always in a society of contradictions
To make ourselves to break the silence
Supposed to get the needs from society.
Importance of silence differs there.
