The Quietness – Delhi Poetry Slam

The Quietness

By Bishnu Sankar Verma

 

The flowers bloom silently
The dews form quietly
The fruits mature in stillness

Silence decorates nature

The rising sun dispels the darkness in tranquility
The soft light of the evening moon censors the beauty in quietude

Quietness sings a musical note of the divinity of nature

The zygote develops quietly in the mother’s womb

The secret of creation paints its poetry of stillness

Time is silent
Space is silent
Causation is silent

Oh Lord, arouse the inspired silence in us
Let us land on eternal immortality
Like a tree, we may bear fruit quietly

I touch calmness somewhere

Silence creates beauty
Silence fashions wonder



My calmness goes beyond all distractions
Let me alight in the Womb of the Universal Mother
To develop and mature
Into a divine-sweet-mango
