After the Deluge

here I am

over the moon


smelling the earth

in the air

  1. and everywhere,

    and everywhere --


    while it's

    still there

  2. You're right, Peter--thanks to Tom's booster rocket, my little capsule rises a little higher--


    A little further
    we will see the almond trees blossoming
    the marble gleaming in the sun
    the sea breaking into waves

    a little farther,
    let us rise a little higher


    --George Seferis, penultimate poem from "Mythistorema"
