SILENCE

Look into the silence,

what do you see?

Plants are growing,

flowers blooming,

heaven and earth are moving,

all in silence.



Listen to the silence,

what do you hear?

Hearts are breaking,

tears falling,

hatred engulfing mankind,

all in silence.



Cloak yourself in silence,

what do you feel?

The presence of God,

spirit of love,

faith and hope in tomorrow,

all in silence.
