praise is a song

there are

those telling me

that silence

is praise


not true


praise always

bursts out in a

song


Valmiki sang the poem

called 'Ramayan'

as a praise to Ram

in one go

Vedvyas sung out the

'Mahabharat'

the biggest poem todate

as a praise of Krishna

in one go as well


praise is always an outpouring

not an internal dialogue

thats why there are

millions of songs by beings in praise

of what they seek


silence just means

space for calculations

a time for

the unwholesome processes of

one's limited malfunctioning machine

the very antithesis

of praise

a simple natural

divinely provided instinct
