Speechless

Chaos and riots Epidemics and wars Confusion like tornado hurricane Confinement, speechless, quiet, calm, rest and unspoken words However people are drowned in the sounds of nature Rattle of the rain Whizzing of the wind Rustling of the leaves Wheedling of the birds Chirping of the crickets Echoing in the caves, jungles and mountains Roaring of the sea Murmuring of the stream Buzzing of the bees Hissing of the snake Quacking of the ducks Mooing of the cows Woofing of the dogs Groaning of the sick Wheezing of the lungs Humming of a lullaby Grumbling of the oldies Mourning of the dead Sighing of the loser Applause of the winner Any other voices may be drowned During this political, economic and epidemic crisis Stay speechless ,calm and cool As the ushering in of the Chinese New Year Looking forward to a better year Only melodies but no blasting or booming Maybe some sounds buried in the wind That's the voice of your heart Stop violation, politicking, trafficking and hegemony As the world Is a part of everybody's legacy in a will Although all along the world is speechless and unspoken
