Silence ..

Of the wind
Of the trees
Of the chains
Of the frees

Of a kid with sparkling eyes
Of a man who is just passing by
Of a woman dressed beautifully
Of an old man gazing at the sky

Of a lamp-post seeing people come and go
Of a trumpet which wont blow
Of a sunrise in the middle of a hay
Of a numb night after a hectic day

Of an actor who’s looking for a break
Of a beggar whom no-one notices
Of a lovely autumn
Of a hungry and vicious snake

Of a wind which isn’t blowing
Of a star which isn’t glowing
Of a bottle filled with wine
Of a clock which is stuck at nine


Of a tree with no leaves
Of a guitar with no strings
Of a life with no thrills
Of a church with no carols

Silence thou not speak
For the mind wanders when you speak
And tongue falters if one tries to speak

Silence…just a thoughtful numb silence
