I SUNRISE AT SOUNION I am dressed in robes of borrowed splendor. What you see in me is figment something from the sea, from the sun, from you, something from the forest, from nights essence, and when I die, the elements will take back the light, the sea, the forest, the moon. Silence will stay in my stead and this soul that I carried in my breast when I fell from the skys topmost perch will be scattered in love on the earth. NIKIFOROS VRETTAKOS THIRTY YEARS IN THE RAIN
