Poetic-Verses from ATHANASE

Ethereal Caresses (English)


'What is philosophy's last word?
The song of the fisherman nearing the river.'

     Wang Wei
 
Snow, snow, snow and the world is like a dream
where shining flakes fall into the abysses of your eyes,
a dream of a better world, sensual and endless,
bestowed by the kind hands of immortal souls above.
 
translated from the French of Athanase Vantchev de Thracy by Norton Hodges
15.12.05.

Notes:

Wang Wei (701-761): Chinese poet.
