"your voice is wild and simple.
you are untranslatable
into any one tongue."- anna akhmatova,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
like the straightforward moves
of the innocent waves,
over the fencepost* on the cost
to the unwanted sands for them, -
where children once strolled
to pick the frozen pebbles**,
your voice gives a magical whispering,
into the ears of the listeners,
until it is melted into the soul,
with aspirations of a tranquility,
when they are in lethargy.
