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…." ©Sylvia Frances Chan A.D. Sunday 2 June 2019 - 8.45 A.M.
