Poems about Poetry
Greek Light
by Kapardeli Eftichia
Outdoor sacred ancient
Hellenic world
all in harmony class
Cosmic Balance
The meeting of two eagles,
Mark … ….
the center of the earth
‘Navel’
***
A fragrant wind drift
thought my vision
Delphi
in the church sanctuary
god Phoebus Apollo
a laurel wreath with bright
keep price
***
Similar to that worn by the Argyrotoxos,
The Thargilios the Sminthefs,
The Ekativolos Apollo
God is in charge of a simple
and clear knowledge
arrows of sun rays
to formulate the sacred inscription
“Know thyself”
***
The sacred fire is still burning
a burning flame
Light Delphi, to score
border order and rhythm instruments
Chaos in the unique
Greek Immortal Spirit
