THE POWER OF SILENCE- POETRY BY PUBLISHED WRITER AND POET- TONY TOKUNBO ETEKA FERNANDEZ

It is not like I did not see it coming

far from it ….

I have discovered and witnessed,

the drama in your story beyond your smile,

Facts written in brightest colours of your very eyes,

Yet, you still feel that no one is watching ….

There is a lot happening in the background,

Moments absorb and digest slowly

Far more than you can see

that,s just LIFE

It is not like I have not noticed

I have chosen to dance to the tunes of diplomacy

I saw the riddle coming

even before you moved your lips,

Has it come to the point

that this journey in Life,

has been reduced to the hyperbole of a Chess game

I can assure you that Seasons and Stories,

have many stages

And that all the Dramas that lie,

beneath the palace of the sun,

have been tamed . . .

By the power of Silence
