[bodytext] => Midnight it was. Darkness prevailed and All of a sudden, the yelling dog Pierced the silence of night. Was he sleeping? Enjoying a dream? He did not know. The sudden crash at his window Woke him up. He heard a noise, (Not too loud, still very deep) “ Stand up, dear boy, and bow! Coz before you is standing our God.� He was shattered. ( Also annoyed may be) He looked up and Saw in front of him The portrait of an elderly man. He was old, calm and quiet. All the beauty of the world, Hangs round his face. He said, with a trembling voice, “You are God!� (The tone was not so surprised, Just like standing in frond of the reality, And try to deny it) God smiled. With love in his eyes, He looked at the young boy. Then a change occurred. A rage was created in the voice Of the boy. “You have to answer me.� In an angry tone, He started, “You love to play with man, aren’t you?� God said nothing. Only a shade of love touched his eyes. “Tell me, sir, do you really love the truth? Do you really care for the good? Do you really have any power to judge anything? Why the fire of hell has to wait forever? Why you fear to touch the guilt? Why love end in sheer hatred? Why sir, why…why…why…?� The boy could not say more. Teardrops touched his word. Still God was silent. Maybe at that time, He became a true politician. ( We all are simple man, aren’t we) Just one of his hands spread into the air. May be he was saying that He would look after everything. He would take every possible measure. Then the boy described his sadness. ( Sorry readers, too private, We cannot hear that) Did God pay any attention? We do not know. And then he disappeared. The boy remained in a dreamy world. Then, Days, months, years passed by. Still no touch of peace appeared In this planet named earth. The boy hoped and hoped. Still his life became boring and tedious. One day, Like the sunlight, Truth expressed herself. Indeed, God is deaf and dumb.
