20089 - The essence of stars
N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Aristeidis Thomas
The essence of stars
came at night
when each one
was illuminating the earth
and she was drinking
every drop of light
to feel
inside her
the force
of the universe
which was touching her
as deep
as it gets
so as to be transformed
and give birth
from her insides
to the sun, the righteous
on the hour of dawn
in order to show
the truth
of intelligence.
