"CIRCASSIAN SHORE"

a white swan glides amorously
suspended in invisible leagues
of heaven

floating

soaring

triumphally across the cloudery

nacreous waves breathe forth
its rhythms down below,
rolling into glaciers of gold,
below suns of silver, embered skies,
gulfs of foaming life

marl and silt

sun and steel

love and beauty

mute trees sway in the wind
cradling the beautiful nests
of seagull mothers

every drop of the great blue sea
is pristine and pure
tonight

clysters of serenity ! sea of topazes,
majestic dance of belugas !

a perfect marine azure
i dissolve into

once upon the time
we lived here

i shall never forget
my origins
