buy me some fish
and let me cook it, with freshly bloomed sage
would you like a cup of Pomegranate juice
accompany to the dish
let us, saunter around Balkan
chasing in the azure expansion above Dardanelles
if only you wish.
This is great...so very sublime. A perfect memory of something that happened long ago, of a time long gone? Or, a description of something recent? Perhaps this is your deepest wish, your most closely held desire? Such a great work....I am looking forward to much more of your poetry.
thank you~ actually this is a piece i wrote for my friend's birthday. we are far away from each other...and this is not a memory. we only met once.. on his birthday i gave him a video of my singing MOON RIVER. two drifters off to see the world / there's such a lot of world to see.. but in fact we'll never see the world together. so i wrote this poem to him, saying that we could saunter around balkan in the flavor of sage(it is mainly produced in balkan) . and in that way we could just travel in mind, at anytime, if only you wish. :)
thanks for sharing, Valentina If I may.. I'd have only 1 suggestion: no comma between us & saunter.. ;) ''let us saunter around Balkan'' WELCOME at PoemHunter, Valentina!
what if I want to make a pause between us & saunter? what should i do without the comma? thanks for your suggestion :)
