Squares and rectangulars in shades of gray

Vlavianos Haris poetry

THE POEM OF ANOTHER POETICS

 

Crystal-clear water in a glistening vase

Yellow and Red roses.

White light in the room, like snow

Fresh snow (it’s the end of winter)

softly falling on the invented place.

The afternoons are returning without sounds,

without secrets, without impatient faces

Round vase.

Porcelain painted with roses.

Yellow and red.

The water – unruffled emptiness.
