Silent Volcano
In a world where silence screams
To make hear its voice
I have come across you
O Volcano Silent, a beauty sublime,
Ungraspable in imagination,
Lazing around in a lagoon blue,
Interspersed with islets green,
Inside your caldera large,
Cast in the form of a diya
To lighten the world around
As if to make an offering
To the spirituality of this site,
A sight that I breathe
Walk as I on the rim upper
Of your crater green
One sunny summer day.
The breeze swept lagoon blue
Standing on the cusp of cooperation,
As if in a state of meditation,
With the winds of ebullition
Blowing through the earth's crust,
Has a message of tolerance wrapped up
For the human race,
Irrespective the differences
Separating its communities diverse,
It can find truce
And break boundaries
To together live
In a space harmonious.
