Silence

A reflection on the nature of man and life

If the dust falls at the end

of the world
shifting- restless the sands

of time
beating at the shore,
beating like a heart-
wake early so as not to 
miss a moment
lift up your eyes,

burning red-orange, orange-red
and see, slightly the

light of life is but a murmur in time, 

while
it wholly is nothing
then smile, for this
is the most beautiful

thing man could have

hoped to create-

silence

I love this piece, it's true that silence is the one of the best things to have, its our moment to get lost in our thoughts and think how the world works!
Beautiful piece of poetry, you have here simply beautiful!

Thank you very much. I couldn't agree more. There's much to be learned and much to be gained by taking a step back from the world for a moment.

Exactly, you are welcome!
