POETRY ALBUM BRACING THE SPINE

Cover page of my 4th self-published poetry book

After returning from hospital

She once said

“I cannot approach for death,

I have just to return to my life.”

Then she goes for taking rest

She goes with start to cry

That she has lost such vigor

All her recognition violated.

All her thirty two years of marriage

All her generation thinking

All her work for home and husband

Lying on cinder of unwanted invaders.

“I do not want to flee,

And tell all invaders that

Sanctity of my bedroom not to be violated

System of my kitchen room not to be rubbished.”

All her wishes are dismissed

In the firmament of generation wilderness

Liking of elderly generation’s work still moribund

Yet she lives with pains.

Poet Kapardeli Eftichia has translated the poem POETRY ALBUM BRACING THE SPINE in Greek
