The Silence.... Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan

The Silence....



So Many Silences, But there's
Only One True Silence….

The silence of the night
the silence of the day

the silence of everyday
the silence of every night
there is only one line right
the silence of the night

even though mosquitoes sing and dance in this dark
the silence prevail

even though men are fighting at night
it looks like our ears do fail

even though old people are robbed at night
no one seems to know or has seen this

even though so many crickets are playing their harp
and make our ears deafening

no one has heard these creatures playing their harp

even though my beloved is screaming in his nightmares
no one dares
to tell that to him

when he awoke and asked the maid:
"Was I so loud last night? "
she obediently replied:
"No, most honoured Sir, not a sound, even not your sigh…."

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Kumarmani Mahakul 03 June 2019

At night we feel silence and and at day time too in certain places we feel it. Silence greatly motivates mind and helps us to feel this universe. Screaming in nightmares we feel still the truth at night. Light we feel with respect to wisdom. In silence every tiny creature sings and dances. A great natural poem is excellently penned...10

Thank you so much, dear Master Poet Kumarmani Mahakul Sir, The sounds that we truly can hear in the deep night, but we deny that, then we call that silence, The Silence. All people can hear that, but is always denied then we can speak of The Silence....Thank you for your precious visit and the 10. God's Blessings be greatest for you and your beloved family.
