Spirit of the Stream


I love to hear 
Your voice so much 
I can’t stand still 

Over this body 
Of water and not speak 
A word of it—even 

To the mute reeds 
Bending with the current 
Against their will.

  1. What a gorgeous poem, Vassilis. Perfectly complete. The water, the reeds, and the watcher: a nexus of insight...

  2. I agree with Joseph, completely...

    Do we not also detect a sort of homage to Pan, that great archetype of nature song?

  3. Thanks, friends for gathering at the river and letting us hear you.

    Yours,

    Pan and Vazambam
