The secrets of the sea are forgotten on the shores
the darkness of the depths is forgotten in the surf;
the corals of memory suddenly shine purple. . .
O do not stir. . . listen to hear its light.”

—-George Seferis

Red rose of the wind and of fate,
you remained in memory only, a heavy rhythm
rose of the night, you passed, undulating purple
undulation of the sea . . .

and the silence is a silver cup where moments fall
echoes distinct, whole, a careful chisel
sustained by carved lines . . .
