E-Mail From Szczawnica Poem by Dorota Szumilas

I just wanted
to email you

to say how beautiful
is here

that my window
overlooks Jarmuta

how I rafted down
Dunajec

that I admired the sun
reflected in the depths of the mountain waters

and how it would fall
onto the rocks and trees

As if it wanted to say...
”don't worry at all”

and asked me to rest
and enjoy the moment

I am not idealizing
the nature at all

and the human being...
what's his worth without the surrounding beauty

I won't write this email now
I am admiring the world!

(transl. Annaya Chomczyk)
