Solitude

Stop thy mutterings, O Poet and send your verses to exile,
Night and day are bonded together in a chain of calendar,
Shades and colours of twilight dance to imageless rapture.
Endless fretful hours unveil
That sky is somewhere beyond distant thunder,
Horizon is vanished, nowhere to find,
Air is drowned in foggy bind
For a restive spirit to wonder.

The blood in veins flow
Soundless like the cold autumn dew,
And trembling inside the heart grew few,
As there are no images to glow.
Soul seeks shelter in solitude away from the crowd,
Thoughts do not spread wings to fly.
The meadow without horizon beneath the sky
A quiet place for any poetic verses to be abound.

Willows

Beneath the bushes and under the lemon tree

Little greenish sparkles of light

Flare out time and again with glee

When the sun goes down in the night.

 

Oh, its the willows!

Happily dancing and floating in the wind

Lighting up with little glows

When the garden is in the dark and blind.

 

Little bloops lighting a moment and disappearing in the next from bush to bush

A delightful wonder to watch

Glowing and then fleeing without a bush

When one  tries to touch.

 

Its a game of hide and seek

That the willows play at night

And not a magician’s trick

And a beauty to wonder with delight.

 

The milky way of the sky with wide eye

Watches the game the willows play

As the little flares of light fly

From tree to tree, happy and gay.

 

All through the night the willows

Spread their wings and flutter from leaf to leaf

And when the dawn approaches with soft and mellowing glows

The stars and the willows disappear and go to sleep.

A Sparrow At My Window

In the afternoon sitting on my window

Was a beauty - a little sparrow.

It was not red or yellow, but grayish wooden pink

Its eyes were wide with a naughty wink

When I did not pay any attention he stole a peep

And called out with a shrill bleep, bleep.
