Nado, please tell me the truth.... who are you?🤗 Are you an Angel, just let me Check your heart, Where's the tag that says "made in heaven"?!! Angels fly from the sky, you rise from the language barrier with all these wonderful poems,entered into this Rainbow to be with all of us,to gift a a literary treat to all of us. I can imagine your appearance to prove to all my friends that angels really do exist! Thank you Nado, thankful to you for being with us. 🤗🤗🤗
How true these words are, a child is not a child... a toy to make relatives smile--- a subtle feeling expressed in such a beautiful way, in every house it happens, happened when I was a child, happening even now with my kids, whenever an elderly relative visits, the first thing they do is interact with the kids in the house and play with them fondly. Marvelous poems.
Thank you, dear Madi. 😳🤗
I don't really know how good the translations are and how faithfully the verses are translated into English. I share with you those verse who I love and who are close to me.
Solitude
You will recognize your strength by
Your ability to
Endure solitude.
Gigantic stars dwell alone
At the edges of the universe.
Tiny and perplexed
They are condensed into galaxies.
Sequoya seeds choose open spaces
With a lot of sunlight, hurricanes and air.
Fern seeds retreat into rainforests.
An eagle has never been in need of
Meeting some other eagle.
Ants invented nations.
You will recognize your strength by
Your ability to
Cope with a moment,
For a moment is harder,
And more terrifying and longer
Than time and eternity.
