SERGEI
my soul is lost
when I hear
the sound of your name
like whispers of the sea
your
echoes,
compell heaven to weave
it's magic spells
I touch your face
with my eyes
and all the wonders
there
I see......
deliriously
I sensed your lips
with a sweet delicious scent
of an intoxicating taste
In blind
adoration
with feverish admiration
I speak your name
and I am spellbound...
you open for me
sights and sounds
whose
existence
I have never known
But my words precede me
so I can describe no more..
this prince of poets
this
angel of angels
born of the winds
of Konstantinovo
blessed and kissed
by the drops of the crystal dew
in
the fertile Russian soil
My life has never been the same
since I heard the sound of your name
For: Sergei
Yesenin
