Germina Melius

Her father's hands extend beyond the land.
Her hands are sealed like the mouth of his vault.
Trembling with every grasp, his wrinkled hands
will never find their youth.

From the gloomy dust, I rise from Hades' spell to see the sun's glory on a splendid morning.
The inner man greets me.
Rise from the clay that binds you in the gutter's belly.
Rise to see your Father's radiant face watching the human soul.

You walk on moons, but I see pitch, and unpaved roads.
I walk on the crust of land, and envy ships swimming on water.
The world walks on its hurting soul, and on ancient bones.
Children bare feet, travel on unpaved roads,

My son is calling from death's grave.
Mother! Do you miss me?
Silent was I, straining to hear a ghost's tale.
Mother! Can you hear me?

no fish but

Wind harvests fallen leaves
in my mind, spring portrait,

It is Tuesday.

Water is pouring on our streets, a new coat for the city.
From brown to blue, white and pink, we marvel at the sight.
Chainsmokers have disappeared from our cities.
God's peace is permeating.

My love, thou art beautiful, a rose on my chest, a whisper in my ear. Thine eyes arouse my heart and consume my mind and sleep. I dread the silent nights because thou art far, like a stranger wandering through the city.
Thy lips tempt me, like peaches when flowers bloom, with sweet scents of perfume.
I am hypnotised, speechless like a statue, and fear myself like an illness.
Thou art a goddess, powerful like the wind―

I love thee but thy carelessness troubles my heart.
I see sadness in thine eyes when thou art hungry,
standing a few feet away from my table,
fearful of my mother's scorning.

The wise fruit opened their eyes.
The man and woman saw their nakedness.
