Sound never fathom depths
That silence penetrate
Wind create waves
But on surface alone
Makes roaring sounds
Whirling round and round
Until it exhausts and depart
As lightning thunder over the hills
The sound of thunder may
Lost but few moments
But the silence of mountain endure
Which saw countless thunders
Disappearing into eternal silence

To give silence a sound is hard, but you managed to do that so well. This piece stunned me as I read it, and I found myself nodding to the concepts I found within it. The flow was beautiful, and the rythm, captivating. Great Write!
