Poetry

Silence
like the white infinite ocean
from the very first moment of creation
out of the primordial chaos.

The first tune of existence
and the only melody of tranquility
permeating all atoms,
the innermost depth pressed into the flower buds.

Silence
the endless background for music
and spoken words,
the primeval mother of all sounds, tones
and noises of this world,
- for the sounds of the swaying seas,
for cat's meditations and murmurs.

The omnipresent as extragalactic
cosmic background radiation.

Silence
the sister of eternity,
the principle for the harmony of the Universe.

The muteness of death,
calmness of Heaven,
first and last.

The pure form.
The fullness of the Word.
In which God dwells.

Silence
- have it in yourself
