\u0399<\/strong><\/p>\n

From Propontis your long travel, Marina<\/em>
Marina<\/em>
with the winds blowing <\/em>
Vosporus up <\/em>
oaths and whispers of my blooded <\/em>
Porfurius<\/em>
and you like an upright wave galloping <\/em>
on the morning crystal<\/em><\/p>\n

you came<\/em><\/p>\n

at the time when July <\/em>
was awaking the cicada all night <\/em>
and the world shone withing <\/em>
its tide<\/em>
as far as the silver paths of the oceanbed<\/em><\/p>\n

And right away God cashed his miracle<\/em>
<\/em>
with rings of Ionian sun<\/em>
which sparkled in your eyes<\/em>
Even though you are daughter of the West<\/em><\/p>\n

\u0399\u0399<\/strong><\/p>\n

A long time ago had heard of you <\/em>
the sea rocks of Lemnos<\/em>
which prophesize in the wilderness<\/em>
as well as its emerald seashore<\/em>
since I was preparing your arrival<\/em>
on the traces of the seagulls<\/em><\/p>\n

And the spring started <\/em>
filling its basket with stars <\/em>
and bluebells of Shallow Waters<\/em>
and polished verbs<\/em>
all with the seal of centuries the infallible<\/em>
and two small palms<\/em>
raised by sea caves<\/em>
from the depths<\/em>
and cups of history vine<\/em><\/p>\n

\u0399\u0399\u0399<\/strong><\/p>\n

Because memory took a new duration<\/em>
a new vow<\/em>
a new endurance<\/em>
and the night hanged up high <\/em>
in its sleeplessness<\/em>
small white church <\/em>
with a broken amphora <\/em>
at its side<\/em>
and the icon in tears<\/em><\/p>\n

It was such love that brought you <\/em>
from a flourishing little street<\/em>
into paternal house <\/em>
with its large jars full<\/em>
of perfumed raki<\/em>
or even of forgotten constantine coins<\/em><\/p>\n

IV<\/strong><\/p>\n

Even God accepted <\/em>
to keep me standing up at the top of the stairs<\/em>
that creak<\/em>
as I am waiting for you<\/em>
to have my duration <\/em>
and my seat <\/em>
in the Interminable<\/em>
when <\/em>
with the red of the wind and the white<\/em>
of the Acherousia <\/em>
my soul is reversed<\/em><\/p>\n

V<\/strong><\/p>\n

You should know Marina<\/em>
about the little church where<\/em>
I hanged up for you<\/em>
that<\/em>
tearful Saint<\/em>
and the standing up waves which at nights<\/em>
gallop under the sleep <\/em>
full of secrets <\/em>
and whispers of blood<\/em><\/p>\n

VI<\/strong><\/p>\n

You must know<\/em>
about the earth of your country <\/em>
with the aconite <\/em>
and the snail <\/em>
on the inscription stone<\/em>
and for the time vertical <\/em>
in your entrails<\/em>
full of Antigones and Artemides goddesses<\/em><\/p>\n

the circular time which brought you here<\/em>
galloping a free wind and zephyr<\/em>
<\/em>
<\/em>
in sea white dress<\/em>
the grand daughter of Maroula and Hypsipyli<\/em><\/p>\n

Remember<\/em><\/p>\n

the poem I did not write is you<\/em>
a long poem<\/em>
unknown.<\/em><\/p>\n
