The Silence Beyond Eden

The Silence Beyond Eden  The sky, dust-laden, wears the stains of ash, while restless souls gather pearls of eternity, yet their hunger remains unsatiated. Frontiers bleed, dreams crumble into ruins, and nameless children inherit an unknown Eden's ashes. Once, your footsteps consecrated the earth, your breath sanctified the wandering winds. Now, iron and fire dictate the fate of spring. Who taught the flowers to fear their blossoming? Perhaps the giants still play their ancient game, moving kingdoms across the chessboard of the earth, while pawns of flesh and blood vanish beneath their shadows. And you remain silent, beyond the ruins of paradise. Is your silence the final mystery of creation, or the permission through which the giants reign?

Strangers

 Strangers They came, perhaps, By the design of God And Goddess— Mami and Enki, Who can truly know? Yet their traces remain, Still telling the tale Of lives once rich And wondrous, Lived beneath Divine guidance. Why, then, do they remain Strangers to later ages? Even the wisest scholars Cannot uncover the cause. Yet they bequeathed A priceless treasure— Wisdom to guide Future generations Toward salvation And eternal peace. By Goutam Roy
