Silence
We all love to speak our mind
Thoughts as formed get dissolved.
Some are good orators
It's nice to hear their words.
There are a few who discourse
Words of wisdom to enforce.
But have you tried being silent
Not speaking a word and be patient.
In distress, confide in others they say
Try confiding in yourself I say.
Instead of saying unworthy word
Being silent better than to be absurd.
It's very easy to say a lot
It's difficult to be in silent spot.
Life will be happier in a quiet state
Joy is really found to penetrate.
Silence is a much better repartee
To an unwilling or gruelling party.
Success comes in silence
It helps to bring in prudence.
Outer silence is done without words
Inner silence with stringent practices.
Silence truly calms the mind
That also keeps body out of bind.
