Poems
by Paweł Markiewicz

 

The contemplative flower of violet

 

The mellow flower of violet

is a fineness of the violet's blossom in the moonlight

however the small eternity happens

in an enchanting woodland solitude

genus Viola is minor

but wonderful and subtle

so tranquil the last night was

when a sylvan dream was awakened

four butterflies landed

in the calyx of this violet

their elysian longing leaving

in the heart of the flower a diamond was created

from heart-like dreameries of butterflies

and from eternal power of starry night

and the moon shines on everything

I stay yet not far from that

in the phantasy – the violet so unfolded

intoxicated by charm and by home land

as well as by starlit night

full of the dreamy Erlking
