*Silence is not keeping quiet
because you have nothing
to say...

Silence is having a lot
to say but no desire
to speak...*

Tendentious, silentious
delightfully lite,
another of Rupal's
reticent writes.

Congrats Rupal
but your thunder words broken my silence..........

Hopefully, all will be said before he/she is no longer there to hear... don't let too much time be spent in silence, it might cause regrets. very thought provoking poem. Enjoyed. hugs, Catie :)

Two aspects of 'silence' exonomically covered in a clever little poem.

Bravo.. what truth ... sorry i havent been around .. been so busy... I have missed my friend.. how are you doing???

Very Taoist. Reminds me of poem 56 of Lao Tzu which begins, "Those who say, don't know; those who know, don't say.

nicholaswalker

I always like it all quiet because, silence gives me anew breath or may be, took me away of my own breath. Whenever I read such piece on "silence" find a peace around universe. Even one day, the soul`s gonna get lost around the world of silence. Nice imagery!

very well said, dear rupal!
'words' are the communication of the ego,
whereas 'silence' is that of the soul.
when we switch off from 'outside' word/world
is when we begin to hear 'within'
silence can ay much more than words...

your writing touched an inner cord bcoz it is so in sync with me, i often have this 'no desire to speak, but say a lot...' and to have a person with whom you can share silence, is pure bliss to me!
thanx n happy diwali Rupal.

Eloquent economy of words, still waters run deep.

thanks rupal. 
you put expression to that most common feeling - where you cannot, mustnot speak. 
i have found that deeper in that place is a holy space. 
some years back a friend chastised me for saying too often what was not, and that i should try to describe what was. holy silence was one of these discoveries.

I see ..so this is where it came from ... You are absolutely right. Likewise ... we don't write because we want to say something. We write because we have something to say . I love this short but packed and loaded with wisdom and life lesson. And it made it to the Daily Poem. Congrats with this one fellow poet!

i remember reading this the day it was published and thinking it was well written. over the past two years, i've frequently reflected on this and increasingly admired it's simple yet profound message.

but revisiting this today, i'm completely awash with awe of how much i sympathize with this. i dont think anything could more perfectly encapsulate how i feel. thank you so much for sharing this.
