Heart of happiness so passionately dreams
Where is the long-awaited my only
Where and in what regions he lives
I should live alone how longly?
...
I am nor poet nor a pedagogue.
So, please, do not judge biased and strictly
A dilettante's naive monologue, -
Persons who create poems brilliantly.
...
In the elegant cups painted in a style of 'gold',
Amber tea pours, giving us a pleasant warming.
But its tonic taste is spoiled by the sadness' salt,
And my drink gets more bitter with the next dawning.
...
At moment, earth left under my exhausted feet,
The clouds fell down from firmament, turning into soot,
When I found my peace in you, heeding the heartbeat -
But there was no place for me in its amplitude.
...
My soul cannot regain its peace, even if it is a temporary.
The charming dream of happiness was an illusory idea:
My knight found hearth in the abode of an another lovely fairy,
The everything in their life is wonderful and quite safe there.
...
A blooming rose has drooped, not feeling warming gentle rays, -
It is sad without the smile of sun, - radiant and bright.
The gloomy luminary looks, turning away its clear face,
At the mortal world, for some reason, with the reverse side.
...
I had a wondrous dream: a surface of the pond that shines
In the rays of sun, which has thrown off stuffy shroud;
In reflection - slender maple gives to me majestic glance,
Hiding heart in crown from the piercing cold winds out.
...
Do not be angry, black-eyed gentleman, if keeping
A loyalty to my feeling, I touched your heart chords.
I only catch a distant mirage while I'm sleeping -
And I apologize shyly for this liberty of plots.
...
On the black velvet of the sky
In this marvelous summer night,
The moon and guiding star's eye
Give for us their magical light.
...
Прошу простить меня за мой укор.
Но как назвать стихами те творения,
Где рифмы нет, - лишь слов набор
Для передачи сердца настроения?
...
First of all, I apologize for the harshness of my words.
This is my subjective opinion and may be an indefensible:
Poems devoid of rhyme is like sentences without dots -
Neither poetry nor prose, - something incomprehensible.
...
You deprived me of peace and stole my serene sleep, it seems
Dragging me into a fairy tale from some children's book.
You did capture feelings, charming stranger from my dreams,
Imperiously conquering them with just a sultry look.
...
Fluffy light snowflakes whirl in the air and quiver,
Descend to my feet in a white cloud, cover the Earth.
On the eyelashes they brightly shine with frosty silver,
On the lips are in a hurry to melt from the warm breath.
...
Reality is ghostly in kingdom of the looking glass.
There is a danger for me: to face with a cold reflection,
Burn my heart with icy breath of the unknown, trying to pass,
To let distorting mirrors joke with my imagination.
...
In routine everyday life, year after year flies by,
But Juliet is faithful to her dream in the days' flow:
She counts the stars in pairs in the clear night sky
And waits for Romeo with sadness at the window.
...
Putting an overseas shell to ear, it seems that from inside
I can hear rolling and menacing the ocean's sighs,
A noise of the thundering salt waves, the foaming raging tide,
Somewhere in the distance a pelican's the shrilling cries...
...
I put into the envelope the radiant light of my eyes,
The pure crystal of an open soul, a timid hope's gleam,
The raspberry fragrance of lips and my sunny smiles,
Sent it all by express delivery in a feelings' stream.
...
A golden sunbeam sneaks behind me,
Casting a mischievous glance,
To see his face on my palm kindly
Does not give me any chance.
...
In the stormy waters of the boundless Internet,
My boat sailed, wandering in the solid darkness,
Plowing the expanses of the world late - at sunset,
On the wave of modern lyrics and from pastness.
...
I hear your footsteps and maybe even
A voice through the space, the time and seasons.
Although your own face is constantly hidden,
I can feel your soul, despite the distance.
...
Waiting
Heart of happiness so passionately dreams
Where is the long-awaited my only
Where and in what regions he lives
I should live alone how longly?
I will drive away sadness from soul's home
I believe that will come happiness
By a thrilling tender hope I will warm
The waiting heart that is a restless...
