THE SACRED TREE
by KAPARDELI EFTICHIA
In the hands of a twig
I hold the olive
kisses of the sun medal
This resembles the landscape
the calcined body
earth, golden root
vein under
the earth secrets
an old olive tree
deeper root
taller and more in the plains
cracks in rocks
cliffs and sides
to sit up wind
and endures
“Moria olive ‘grew
where the goddess
Athena struck with spear
A land skin
kotinos kallistephanos
for the Winner
flowering olive
floral soul
Dense hugs
fruit
oil for the light that stay up
the saints the lamp
the golden spirit
holy harvest
The undying time
flow of the sacred tree
immortal awakes
the suns touch
the cast shoot
the trunk,
cycle in nature
the same root
the bare hands
when they make centuries
Weigh the light
the sacred heart
