Silence

Silence is not the absence of anything; it is the presence of something the existence of a god or a sort of divinity as heard in the flapping wings of a butterfly on the windowpane or as heard in the claps of thunder in the stormy rain; or as heard in the susurration of the wind among the trees; it is simply the visit of a Muse a piece of God's hair which breaks off and hovers in the air infiltrating our creative compositions. Indeed it is the presence of something not the absence of anything a domain of possibilities a shade of emotions and a mirror to the soul.In this anthology silence embodies various metaphors such as silence is golden silence is deafening silence is a veil of snow silence is a mirror silence is a veil of secrecy silence is a sanctuary silence is a lullaby etc. With its many metaphors as used by poets in this anthology silence then seems to play a role in our existence and the way we human beings perceive things.
