Poems about Poetry
MOTIONLESS BODY
by KAPARDELI EFTICHIA
Land of the property motionless body
straight light fill my soul
asleep colors royal perfume
tribes in the vein, my little town
***
In purpura the youth I met passer
old houses in the open windows
the words soul and silence
weigh in the deep battle
***
The Sun is constantly changing angle
and all over the world travel
Innocence and guilt for a miracle
kiss me to wake up with me sleeps
***
I learned to read with the calculus
front my unfolds the city
to the straight path trees matched
the edges of the eyes trapped
***
Years loving shoots uprooted
melts my heart chest
friends were forgotten in troubled cities
White became a star and travel
***
But someone remembers … a longing
celestial rings from the same tears from
themselves kissing old and new
the wind brings the light, mind flowers
… … .. A new day dawns
