DESERT - soul poetry

I went to the desert

To listen to the silence

I fell in love with silence

I relished silence

The desert whispers stories

It tells its stories

The desert lives in silence

Silence hides secrets

The stone of knowledge is a treasure trove

A faithful companion of silence

Fear is a mediocre companion

Jealous and greedy

And Silence woke me up

The desert hugged me

Solitude was a lesson

Silence has discovered treasures

I found what I lost

Who I am--I recalled

I got to know myself in Silence

I got my wings back

The desert is a mystery

Silence, a faithful guardian

The stone, a repository of knowledge

History—a sorceress
