The Sound
I heard -
A sound which elates the world,
Of conteporary tremendous exploitation;
A sound mightier than thunder,
Which reminds the world of it’s majestic blunder!
The sound which revealed the secrets of nature,
Which man can never even dream or doom.
The sound that prompts the world with truth,
The sound that echoes amidst the gloom.
The sound that is better than the doctrines;
The sound that is deeper than any heart’s mine;
The sound that banishes the dilemma in us,
The sound that governs joy and fuss.
The sound that is the ultimate sun,
The sound that is life’s true jig.
The world looks down in shame - if I say -
From the depths unprejudiced - it was a child’s cry!
