ELYTIS'S JOURNEY

Nature's second birth
in the blue flashed sea
under clouds and sky
squaring the day's rain
by wet fronds
looming as fire signs
in drifts of new life
from a pillar of landscapes
of a hundred possibilities
in the palms of your hands
by nameless sacred stones
a bird floats at a distance
dances in the horizon
drinks in the fountains
as Elytis chants in the sunset.
