21988 - At Himarra

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Athena Kehagias

At Himarra
we saw the sea
with the Diapontian Islands
prior to talking
with our people
and realizing
that Hellenism
is alive
and durable
because it knew
for centuries on
that what was proper
was for it to survive
under all
conditions
even the most difficult ones
in order to be justified
through its battle
and its works
therefore in this case as well
the sea
continues
to give its colour
to the innocent
and the Just.
