standing forward by Anna Stereopoulou

“Standing Forward”

And I stood forward
looking into those eyes
a beautiful pair like no other
and as unique as lotus flowers,
nostalgic eyes
sending me hope that dawn would come
but, alas..!; they were only stars
that shed a beam of light
and only briefly
(and that, ephemerally)

“Καὶ Στάθηκα Μπροστὰ”

Καὶ στάθηκα μπροστὰ σὲ δυὸ μάτια μὲ δίχως ταίρια,
ὡραῖα σὰ λωτολούλουδα, μάτια νοσταλγικά,
ποὺ μοῦ μηνοῦσαν τὴν αὐγή, μὰ ὠιμένα ἦταν ἀστέρια
ποὺ μοῦ εἶχαν ρίξει λίγο φῶς κι᾿ αὐτὸ διαβατικά.
Μαρία Πολυδούρη
