Poetic-Verses from ATHANASE

In A Harsh Time (English)


'O, if only we could see through to the interiority of the soul'

St Augustine

Garden, protect my prince from the raging heat of the day,
protect his smile with your innocence, green and cool,
and may you, Eternity, who have planted inspiration in
so many other hearts, shade his eyes with your loving hands!

translatd from the French of Athanase Vantchev de Thracy by Norton Hodges
