quietude of the day
coaxes poetry out of me

The dark hour 
of pre-dawn
solitude.

Air is thick
with solemn
quietude.

Soul ablaze
with vibes of 
sacred chant.

Unconscious minds have no free will
Likewise for monks in quietude
Who have chosen to remain still

 muted by the falling snow,
 dusted in quietude,
 trees slip peacefully into
 the night, blanketed by snow

sleeping silently
like un-hearing spoken words

They were silent when they reached the sea
with the birth of a new day…
some mornings ensure the quietude
when they take your breath away.

Spell of Silence

From din of day,
Till death holds sway,
In grave you lay...
Ha, solitude!

The reign of hush,
Where the worms rush,
Dust to dust crush...
Ha, quietude!

Quietude

Quiet are the hyacinths
Underneath the snows
Irises and violets
Even the red rose
Today are lying silent
Underneath the snows
Daffodils and lilacs
Even the red rose.

rippleless quietude
where no thought forms intrude
displays fissures in space 
wherefrom in-pours God’s grace
as light that lights all lights
through the day and our nights
