I am not silent
C P Aboobaker
I am not silent.
In my silence lives all my liveliness
and all my noises
and all my music
I am now silent
Because I have no poetry in me.
I am a dry pond
none can swim in it;
I am a dry leaf
Fallen from a tall tree;
I am a dry flower
Hidden in the alleys of memories;
I am a plucked feather
its colours have no life
I am a dry wind hot and rough
Still I am not silent.
