Poem by Kostas Karyotakis

EVENING

The children that play in the spring dusk

far away echo —

the breeze whispers and remains

in the lips of the rose petals

the open windows that breath the hour

my vacant room —

a train coming from a foreign land

my vanished dreams

chime of bells that fades, evening that descends

onto the city —

onto the faces of people, into the mirror of the sky

in all my life right now.
