Poem by Gesthemani Sideridis

I WAITED

It was calm in the island

the moon hanged from the sky

red fluid poured in the black sea

calm moon and calm sea

calm boats, motionless

I held the little umbrella in one hand

the red light was afraid

in my other hand a green anchor

and I stood on the silent rock

I was also calm like the rock

and I waited

for the wave to bring you back

the sea was also calm
