silence

I ran across the following quotes on silence; now after 41 years of rearing children silence may mean more to me than some. 


Silently as a dream.
Silent as a standing pool. 
Silent as a thought. 
Silent as a night. 
Silent as falling dews. 
Silent as the foot of time. 
Silent as the growth of flowers. 
Silent as your shadow.
Silent as snow falls on the earth. 
Silent as the day gives away to night. 
Silent as the grave. 


I like that.
