Being in the womb of non-being

Aha that solitude's brace
with full grace
on one's hassled self!
The fragrance of silence
away from the mind's violence,
Smell it,
Enjoy to the last bit,
But never forget 
the scent of humanity,
It has its own beauty,
The sweet-sour smell of attrition
of life against testing odds,
Of pleasure, pain, sighs, moan,
The soft brace of a flower
and the divine shower
of smiles and tears 
also bears
the stamp of the unwritten laws,
Nothing'd exist without humane flaws,
The heavenly bliss
and peaceful kiss
prevailing in the vales
won't have any meaning without
the strife and humanity's travails,
Silent whispers in a forest
and the noisy outpours in a bazaar
share deep roots,
Life is impregnated in deep chambers
of silence and solitude
and the mystical beatitude
somewhere far away,
It's then let loose
to seek a higher meaning
in the congested, overbrimming,
cacophonic, struggling bazaar,
Life comes out of a deep cave
to brave 
all that blood, sweat, smile,
tears, love, guile
and hate
that berate
we humans,
We have to pass the test
and be our best
in the crowd
and then wear the shroud
of the eternal sleep
as undisturbed silence motherly creep
to take us deep 
again into the silent womb.
