Summary/Abstract: Searching of God in the poetry of Anna Kamieńska has a few aspects: silent dialogue, experience of pain and mutual relations between God and a human being. This is a process which makes God’s image change and evolve. Besides apparent contradictions, particular images are combined and complete each other. The most expressive in Kamieńska’s poetry is the image of God of Silence. It shows that silence is the only condition that enable us to experience God’s presence. There are also other images of God such as: God of Light and Darkness and God present in pain. The usage of contradiction and paradox existing in the description of God is the characteristic feature of this poetry. What is more, such means creating the image of God are the evidence that God will always be a mystery for a human being, even if we are still trying to find out more about this Mystery and unify with God.
