'A quiet pause' or 'Silver of Silence' - art work
Silver of Silence
A short story :
She leaned gently against the railing, her weight shifting onto one leg, the other dangling in quiet ease. Wrapped in her simple sari, she looked out at the morning sky, where soft clouds drifted lazily across the horizon.
It was her moment of pause. After the whirlwind of daily chores and unending responsibilities, she allowed herself this sliver of silence. The world behind her was noisy, demanding, insistent—but here, for a few minutes, she was just herself.
She thought of dreams left unfinished, of journeys she still wished to take, and of the quiet strength that carried her through each day. There was no audience, no applause—only the soft whisper of the breeze, and the rhythm of her own heartbeat.
For her, that was enough.

Here’s a short poetic piece on the subject. one can use with artwork in
“She leans into the silence,
wrapped in the strength of her sari.
The world rushes on,
but for a moment,
time stands still.”

“Silver of silence” is not a standard idiom in English. It seems more like a poetic expression.
However, it can carry a very beautiful meaning:
Silver often symbolizes something precious, rare, and shining.
Silence suggests peace, stillness, and reflection.
So together, “silver of silence” could mean the precious value of quiet moments, or the beauty found in stillness.
She thought of dreams left unfinished, of journeys she still wished to take, and of the quiet strength that carried her through each day. There was no audience, no applause—only the soft whisper of the breeze, and the rhythm of her own heartbeat.
For her, that was enough.
