The central idea of the poem Keeping Quiet is to keep silence for a moment and do nothing. Instead, introspect ourselves and understand what we are doing. The poet asks us to stop wars, hate, pollution, killing of animals and hurting ourselves and spare some time to go deep into the soul.
Silence is the universal language and hence as there will be no language barrier we all will be one, we won’t have greed and hate. There will be unity and fraternity. The poet believes this this silence will change our perspective and thinking because it does not mean inactivity but patience like the nature.
