Transparent Man Poem by THEODOROS MANTAS

There is a transparent man
who is always silent and he loves roses
and the white colour of the sun!
Sometimes in three strides he crosses
the bright ocean of stars and he reaches the inaccesible.
There is no desert in his life.
At times, he climbs to steep mountains
where he can hear the pure voice of the future's wind.
And he likes playing the piano his favorite song...
Noone has ever heard it' only a beautiful butterfly knows its lyrics
but it lives in a secret garden in the kingdom of dreams.
O I wish i could be the king of that kingdom!
I will write a story about that man, i will try to become
his shadow...I want so much to be in his shoes
for a while. I will try to open the window of my soul
and to rush into the area of dreams to meet that butterfly
to hear that song...
I will..., I will...but will I become a transparent man at the end?
