Understanding Why

Some things unsaid by
bamboos quiet in a pose of repose;
there are shivers in the
chords of leaves 
unseen by glances from
eyes unread.
And still,
they close and bow,
things must have been
said from the depth of 
a heart bursting not with words
but of silence understood
and affirmed.
