A LOVE LETTER



I just recall this wondrous instant:
You have arrived before my face --
A vision, fleeting in a distance,
A spirit of the pure grace.

In pine of sorrow unfair,
In worldly harassment and noise
I dreamed of your beloved air
And heard your quiet, gentle voice.

Years passed. The tempests' rebel senders
Have scattered this delightful dream,
And I forgot this sound tender
And how heavenly you seemed.

In gloomy dark of isolation,
My days were gradually moved,
Without faith and inspiration,
Without tears, life, and love.

My soul awoke with decision:
And you again came as a blest,
Like an enchanting fleeting vision,
A spirit of the pure grace.

My heart beats on in resurrection --
It has again for what to strive:
Divinity and inspiration,
Life, tears, and eternal love.

Alexander Pushkin

Pushkin doesn't sound like a poets name does it. Good poet though can't deny that can we.

I know just what you mean Markus-sounds more like a sinister oligarch- but I enjoy Alexander (there that's better) Pushkin-I think
he battled with the big questions of life and love throughout his life. The translations from Russian can be 'iffy' but those done in the
1960's tend to be the best. I'll post another one for you called To The Sea.
