Silence Resides Here..



Written for 'Silence' - OSI ( Thanks to Shail) and  for 'Whisper' - Haiku Heights ( Thanks to Paulami)  Also shared with Rebecca's  Haiku My Heart

 

 Silence Resides Here..


Inner silence gives
A calm glow on the face, ah,
Moon, a true example..


Yet, it is difficult
To achieve silence, the word
Itself speaks so much..


Focus on each breathe,
Takes me to a place that says,
“Silence resides here”.

But I am scared
To knock at the door, because
Won’t that break silence..

And silence whispers
“ Door is illusion, walk in”,
I do that and merge..

    Love it, especially your question, whether knocking won't break the silence :)

    I find it too true...we are usually afraid to break the silence, silence can be a refuge, don't you think so, RS?

    This is lovely, Ramesh! so simple yet profound.. Well.. I spoke to Anita Rajah and have connected her to my Kerala Associate.. I did not meet Prof. Satyanarayana and hence did not call you. Will keep you updated.. Keep writing!
