The Shadow In The Water Poem by Anahit Arustamyan

THE SHADOW IN THE WATER

The shadow in the water might look for its copy.
Ah, water! Don't let it disappear as it could have been someone's glory!
Who knows what it used to be in the sky's story?
The shadow isn't a tortoise moving slowly.
Ah, water! You made its knees foamy but they might have been bony.
Chewing nothing the shadow makes something noisy.
Oh, no, the noise isn't the shadow's but the water's only.
A thousand of eyes can't see the shadow's body.
A thousand of stars can look at the shadow coldly.
Ah, water! Don't let the shadow disappear as it might have been a sea gull's or a swan's hobby!
Time has tied its tail to a billion of seasons' speedy pony.
