Silence Victorious

Silence

A day of silence

Can be a pilgrimage in itself.

 

A day of Silence

Can help you listen

To the Soul play

Its marvelous lute and drum

 

Is not most talking

A crazed defense of a crumbling fort?

I thought we came here

To surrender in Silence,

 

To yield to Light and Happiness,

 

To Dance within

In celebration of love’s Victory!

Hafiz

Some poems are just so great. I love this one because in it Love is a victory!  Love is a

Celebration and it does require surrender into a silence in order to realize it. Hafiz reminds me that Leadership is so important. Right now there are so many people clambering for a voice clambering to be heard. But when we surrender and listen to what is being said it’s a lot more of the same fear mongering. If we listen to God we hear Be Not afraid/ Rest in me/Trust in the One who made you.

Yes I say to the question he asks… Is not most talking just a crazed defense of a crumbling fort? Lord let me live whole heartedly in you. Let me remember you in all I do. So I say do not listen to the noisy outsiders who get louder and louder.  Let’s surrender as the poem says in silence to yield to Light and Happiness ~ To Dance within ~ In Celebration of Love’s Victory. Yes! Yes! Love is victorious. A true win win~ Amen
