This Eerie silence – By Oscar E V Fernando<\/strong><\/h1>\n

\"silence\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Will this sound of silence go on and on?<\/span><\/p>\n

Till that terrible drumming within ceases<\/span><\/p>\n

A drumming that is consistently reeling around<\/span><\/p>\n

Till man in his restlessness pulls out its blocking fingers.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Thus filling in that frenzied drumming with sweat sound of silence<\/span><\/p>\n

Which is the spirit with which He filled the void in existence before creation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Man was ceaselessly searching for this Silence<\/span><\/p>\n

For Man is restless until he rests in adoration.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The search we know was maddening<\/span><\/p>\n

In the wrong direction and it was so saddening<\/span><\/p>\n

With misplaced greed for wealth position and glory<\/span><\/p>\n

All of which was readily there if he searched for His Glory.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Seek ye first the Kingdom of God He said<\/span><\/p>\n

For then you will find what you searched with uneasy haste<\/span><\/p>\n

That drumming will cease and you will find rest<\/span><\/p>\n

With a soul filled with cheery silence with no uneasy boast.<\/span><\/p>\n
