Mouna (silence)

mouna

silent the tongue

silent the mind

silent the beautiful mountain above all that passes

silent the green grass with glistening drops of dew

silent the great tree spreading it's branches

and the bird that soars to the heights of space

silent the pure waters at the core 

reflecting the appearance of world

silent the heart protected from the *me*

the dream

the death

the life

the stilling of all

mouna

silent...
