Silence

Anuradha Kaistha

Free verse
Silence

I meet silence...
She pervades, she permeates,
She secretly invades my mind.
Calming, soothing, like a whiff of fresh air,
She establishes quietude, and harmony within.
I absorb, I contemplate, I reflect...
What is silence, if not a potent prayer...?
To connect with the most powerful force in the universe.
