ATHENS stone of sapphire of ground the Ring
by kapardeli eftichia
ATHENS
Athens stone of sapphire of ground the Ring… “
“..
Kostis Palamas
Years rooted here
less than the rich
sunlight
Greek light
stone chisel
coalesce with the Gods
with souls, with ideas and names
***
Petals of roses
fall to earth
Centuries browse
under the marble sculptors
invincibles
columns of the Parthenon
***
With the golden armor
hand and the sword
Athena, goddess of the city
pilgrims who
searching for the way
Immortal spirit of the Greek
leads
«Greece before
the sort of glorious years
never fade
why is unfading Sofia »
***
My friends and my acquaintances
Flowers on tree clones
flourished and matured
all these years
from the weight they fell
in this ground
where wounded bird
in the fog from the current invaders it resembles
***
Athens
Eternal Beauty soil glorious
lightning capture tools
the cloud and the Star
Atticus Sky
each new day
crowned with ancient ideals
***
New Sun, New route
A Golden City
there always remains hidden
the handful of God
hiding
