The Tree I Am/ Ja Sam Drvo Poem by Miroslava Odalovic

The tree I am
Sideroad’s heart
My words in leaves
They touch the ground

The river I am
A beat in veins
My words in a drop
A swallowed water

The cloud I am
A written sky
Quote me not
The night is eavesdropping





Ja sam drvo
Srce krajputaša
Moje riječ i u lišć u
Dotič u tlo

Ja sam rijeka
U venama dodir
Moje riječ i u kapi
Progutana voda

Ja sam oblak
Ispisano nebo
Ne citiraj me
Prisluškuje noć
