The Silence of God

where has she gone?

asked the land,parched and thirsty

to the sky thirsty and blue

no answer came,no monsoon came

where has she gone ?

asked the child,his lips parched,thirst in his throat

to his mother thirsty and weak

no monsoon came but an answer came

"she has gone far away to wet the lands

to turn leaves green,to feed the rivers

she is on gods command

for god alone commands"

where has she gone

asked the child with his hands towards the sky

with thirst in his throat

to the sun scorching and merciless

no answer came and he couldn't hide

the dry grass and the ribbed cows looked to the sky

in the yellow of the sun they waited

not a cloud any where the sun couldn't hide

no water anywhere the sky remained silent

she then came dancing to the drums of angles

pouring rains mingled with love from her bosom

but she was late for the land ate the child

the land was no longer thirsty for tears can quench thirst

the child died of thirst and his lips were parched

his mother sat by his grave drenched in her rain

she remained silent,no answer came

god remained silent no answer came
