SILENCE (4)

Poetry is a heightened form of keeping silent.

Poetry is an orphan of silence. The words never quite equal the experience behind them.

Charles Simic



A poem doesn't only consist of words - it consists of words and their silence.

Martinus Nijhoff



Words may only serve to improve the silence.
