Pandemonium everywhere, tumult filled the air
Constant chitter chatter
Wheels turning, horns honking, pots whistling,
Wind blowing, thunder blasting, blades spinning
Birds chirping, snakes rattling, wolves howling,
Bees buzzing, dogs barking, children screaming,
Bells ringing, music playing, phones blaring.
It’s a ruckus, that’s what it is!
They say silence is golden
And so I ask “where oh where can it be found?”
It’s not in schools, churches, hospitals or homes
Definitely not in a nursery or in a monastery.
Is it under a rock somewhere far into a cave?
Oh sacred silence, be thou no longer hidden
Show thyself, so there can be peace
Demonstrate the beauty of your sacredness silence
Shhh….oh Silence!
