The Silence That Answers Back: Poems

By Andrew Ray Williams

In The Silence That Answers Back, Andrew Ray Williams writes from the ordinary places where life opens into grief, wonder, and mystery: a hospital room, a checkout line, a child's bedroom, a cemetery path, a walk after an argument. Here grief is not separate from love, nor faith from doubt. These poems look steadily at anxiety, illness, marriage, fatherhood, and the ache of memory, while listening for what the natural world may still be saying--a cardinal at the window, bluebells in a clearing, water over stone, trees rising without seeing the horizon.



Tender, plainspoken, and prayerful, this collection does not hurry toward consolation. It stays with what wounds and what sustains, listening until even silence becomes an answer.
