POEM BY KOSTIS PALAMAS
IMAGINATION
Come, oh maiden, imagination
and you too ringleader thought
bring all the tireless workers
fairies of the rhythm
and bring the depth of lust
the heights of vision
and bring the flowers
made of gold and marble
the gleaming words
to build a palace and erect
the idol of the Sun inside it
and make it exquisitely great
adorable like a sun ray
Manolis Aligizakis
