ONE SWEET WHITE LIGHT
by KAPARDELI EFTICHIA
A sweet white Light
The smile of dawn
a flame from
the torch of life.
A sweet white light
the heavy winter
leafing through the heart …
… … To keep warm.
A sweet white Light
Cover loving your body
with kisses and tears.
A sweet white Light
angel tears into the eyes of children …
when their hands are reaching out
tired in the hands of parents.
A sweet white Light
New worlds
a tireless news
looking for hope …
