Poems about Poetry
The emigrant
by kapardeli eftichia
Stranger in foreign
In another land Joined oblivion parts
In all countries of the Sun
All I spend my nights
And do not forget, light and dawn
sorrow intolerable
***
I struggled with the memory of the frills
In a children’s church
Of my house the way
stay lilac
Invisible material keeps me
He shouts that
I have a home ..
***
Within the basins of silence
The voice of the soul with a song
Property Greek sky
My beloved fatherland
My sweet home
Sun and day wear
The wound with sprigs of roses
***
Embracing the exile
My heart is slowly dying
Flowers are planted in
foreign places
Away from the mother’s arms
How to endure the heart
