Jeremy Martin Poet Free verse

Knossos At Night

Dark landscape
Moon-lit ruins 
Guitars sing to you 

Kallístei, 
Hos en álloi kósmoi* 

The temple rises
Saffron on the cliffs 
Aphrodite stands
On the waves 





*For the most beautiful; as if in another world

Joann Grisetti August 31, 2012 at 8:04 AM I never got to see Knossos at night, but can hear your music. A beautiful city, with a poem to match. Jeremy Martin September 1, 2012 at 2:30 PM How neat, because the poem was inspired by a Satie song. Thanks for the comment!
