Artwork Description:

You, my Silence by Gennadi Aigi *** I speak about you to the outermost stars of limpid winter: Oh, how can such silence be?... - it -perhaps- surrounds me like the stillness of a field bright with shimmering sympathy But there is no purification for my soul in its ripples and in the soundless waves like my sleep is made brighter -as if it was wakened long ago- without me - by the whiteness that this year appeared in a dream, so merciful - to the world ...- but one day -possibly- there will come an end to the wholeness of you and your constant completeness so simple and bright as paradise if only for a single tear for me and when I disappear - you will express grief without words - only by a reflection of radiant grief and instead -like a sigh- you will receive a clear part and a lasting measure of such emptiness as there is in life and will be in death, as where the Spirit cannot live His consoling presence resides ... - but - I love and I know: for God nothing will adulterate your silence
