Silence


Before the world came into existence
Silence reigned over the vast water
The Spirit of Almighty hovered over the water
The sovereign voice is heard in the midst of silence
Life entered into the salty water
The beautiful earth emerged out of silent water
And with it came along the greenery
And the peaks reaching heavens
The birds with melodious voice
And the animals that can run ceaselessly
Finally the efficient hand picked up the dust
And molded it into His own image
Almighty breathed life into it
And gave him the dominion over the earth
And the living beings on it
God felt pity for the lonely image
So gifted a companion to him
We all the inhabitants of the earth
Red, Black or White
Evolved from the first man and woman
And the noise came along with it
Since silence is opposite to noise
Like light to darkness
Silence isolated itself
in the deepest corner of the human heart
and overwhelms the isolated heart
