Jolanta Gradowicz Poems

Come, come words to my mind!
Compose freely! I’m waiting!
My stanzas must be well-designed
They can’t look like a fallen building.
...

I’m looking for the most proper rhymes
To express my gratitude to my Friend
For both the happy and difficult times
When all my ways could find a good end.
...

It comes suddenly in the small hours -
It appears when I can’t stand this world,
And when I can’t hold back my bitter tears.
It’s a morning dance – I am in a whirl…
...

A dropp of water cuddled up
To a sprig of a mountain fir.
A magic, see-through ball turned up –
A useful tool for every dreamer.
...

I feel this change; it hovers in mid-air,
Arising from the inexplicable,
Leaving my doubts, and pain, and despair,
Bringing confidence. It’s indefinable...
...

I looked at an autumn leaf falling slowly
In the rhythm of a waltz under the foggy skies,
Dancing on the deserted alley lonely,
What an amazing journey right before it dies…
...

Smile at me for good morning -
I can’t live without your smile.
Give me the morning blessing,
Please, give me the little while.
...

I’ve found a note written with your hand -
A little piece of paper in my drawer
With out-of-date notes – my little island
With a buried treasure – I, discoverer.
...

You used to be there –
In a bird’s singing, in a flower...
I could feel you everywhere –
Your touch, your smile, your power.
...

I dreamed I had a great Power
To create this world on my own,
To make everything much simpler -
A chance to know what was unknown.
