“The Sea Hath its Pearls” by William Henry Margetson“Longing” by Heinrich Vogler
To all of you, entranced by subtle verse,
Here lies a gift concealed between the lines -
As though a scintillating pearl, enclosed
Naively by the effervescent rhymes.
Kindling above the fervent windswept waves,
Your gentle words transcend the leaden clouds!
Ornate, like scarlet flames, the heartfelt praise,
Unvanquished, burns away my puerile doubts.
So I remain a prisoner, alone
Ordained to dwell in the Siberian steppe -
May there be solace - when the warmth is gone,
Upon your eyes, rains softly my regret.
Creating threads of poetry at night,
How blessed I am to have your vibrant light!
Songs of the Siren by Victor NizovtsevAngel by Victor NizovtsevMermaid by Victor Nizovtsev
My dreams feel like drowning -
Your absence still haunts me...
Dive deeper, my darling!
Enchanted, yet free,
All heavenly angels
Remember their lovers
Emerging, like ambers,
Mesmerized by the sea,
My tears catch fire -
Are you thinking of me?
