LISTENING


Satish,
the refrain forces an examination of the succeeding lines for the often ignored common denominator.
“who tasted the laughing moonlight.” – beautiful expression.
“Death makes a big hole
in a spooky silence!” – the words “silence” and “death” resonate for me – “The Silent People” Walter Macken (set in the Great Famine) and a description of Ireland I heard reported from a woman who had survived into post-famine times (a silence descended over the country) Fergus- Gion Gion
