Lullaby

Sleep my baby, sleep my dear,
Iav-nanina-o.
It’s still dark, day’s yet not breaking,
Iav-nanina-o.
Nana I’m singing so that you sleep,
Singing you so that quiet you be,
Violet you bore with love in its heart,
Rose with a joy has brought you up.
Should Our Lady’s will be such
That I shall see you grown up,
Delia nana, my little one,
Watching me now with cherubic smile,
Sleep is coming, close your eyes,
Delia-nana-nanao!

About this poem:
This is the song Lullaby (Iavnana), the lyrics of which I have translated for you, dear poets, from Georgian. You could listen to the music, composed by our well known composer, to the heartfelt performance, and follow the lines of lyrics in English. The Georgian poetess Lali Gulisashvili is the author of the poem "Iavnana" (Lullaby). Below I attach the song. Hope you will enjoy it!

Eight lines to Bacchus

The grape spurts forth in gross and sweet profusion,
The sticky juice under the crushers' feet,
When brewed a while, it leads to sweet delusion,
Thus helps shy lovers - when they first do meet,
Others find it brings them much confusion,
The morning after, when it has them beat;-
And Bacchus, from on high - I hear his laughter,
Don't let this god of wine now be your master.

Eight lines, may become more, at some point (I guess, then, I'll have to modify the title)...

Driving Down The Highway

Driving down the highway
Double yellow tracks, neither ends
The deserted landfill's flatness
Makes vegetation no mends
Faraway the mountain madness
Reaches hands to sadness
Loneliness takes over my thoughts
Lost behind were all friends
No dreams to conquer lots
No love to hug nightspots
Driving down the highway
Scenery of gray-bluish sky
The air flows evenly
Its aroma of an air-dry
Memories come peacefully
An atmosphere so wheezily
Deep inside, my heart beats
Yet it has no musical frequency
Life reveals its cheats
Those that stab you bleats
Driving down the highway
Speeding at times non-stop
To relentless brain fogs
No fragrance to smell crop
In this outpouring travelogs
Stretching at times your backlogs
To accommodate your seat
Can't heal the pain of the monologues
Triggers profound deceit
To an outpouring tear defeat
Driving down the highway

Simply a Flower

Please do not let your flowers be parched
These beautiful beauties have their distinctive characteristic in nature
Orchids can live up to 20 years, despite their difficulty of maintenance
The presence of them brings peace, bringing us closer to the divine.
Their majestic hues represent a multitude of things.
Purple is a color that is associated with dignity, admiration, and wealth.
Red is a symbol of love, passion, desire, and strength.
Friendship, grace, and joy are all associated with the color pink.
The blue-colored one is the rarest.
Difficult to achieve, but simply beautiful.
At the time of the Renaissance
The columbines had a connection with
The Holy Spirit and the Sorrows
Of The Virgin Mary
Also functions as a sign of
Fortitude, courage and endurance
Their bell-like shape can be seen dangling
They are unique in their own way.
Almost any color can be seen in their blooms
Peristia was frequently referred to
Like the dove orchid
Flowers with an intense marble
White color and purple spots
In the scriptures, the term flower
Is mentioned more that a hundred times
Specific types like Rose of Sharon,
Rose, and Lily of the Valley
These wild flowers were present
In Jesus's Sermon on the Mount
Still growing wild near the lake of Galilee
When orchids disappear
It is said to be a red flag
To an entire ecosystem
And endangers other plants and animals
You're familiar with the flower of Jesus?
The Passion flower
Scourging, crowning with thorns
What flower means heaven?
The iris flower
Goes back to Ancient Greece
It was the link between heaven and earth
The daffodil, beauty within
They are downwardly inclined flowers
Often associated with the resurrection
And the hope of new life
The flower of healing?
The lavender with its enthralling
Blue-violet hue revers
Healing, strength, and resilience
Cornflower, this dainty blue bloom
Holds a special meaning, blessing
Never ending beauties from our Creator

Cracked Pepper

Cracked pepper, just a memory
your reflection in stainless steel
all may yield few clues
birth of a test pilot's angst
in radiation blue
this lime lime resonance
is a song to fully appease
stirring the crowds at 45 rpm
load and reload boys
a witching in the switchgrass
cocaine copters
out on the delta
sky black, hijack
gone like DB Cooper
who would have guessed it
who could have breathed it
message for 2024
sleep with your boots on

Fairy tales time

The boy lived
In anticipation of miracles,
He believed
It would come out of nowhere
Unexpectedly and forever
He didn't believe
In ridiculous dogmas,
In the silence
Of unshakable walls...
And even at times he looked naive,
He couldn't live
Any other way
He was just awaiting for his miracles,
For his fairy tales
And then one day
Everything what used to be just a dream
Suddenly happened to him
And here it is-
Unthinkable a moment ago
It turned out exactly the way
He dreamed of
And it seemed
He should be happy, but for
Some reason
He stood and cried
Looking out of his window...

About this poem:
It came to me after reading a post of Mcradloff (daradloff).. I was thinking why not? just live and enjoy some small things and dream of miracles.. even with an element of bitterness in the soul. so i ve created a small fairy tale about a boy
I wish all our poets a magic December full of miracles and fairy tales

Orange and bouyant

There is no wind here
a thousand lit candles
perfume and wax from far shores
all have blown in
above the door a cherub
adorns the headspace
the columns are carved
from the darkest ebony
Can you hear the whispers?
I can too, between the eternal
and the now there is something
we reach for, its deep in the midst
perhaps its a little life raft
that is how we would want it
orange and bouyant
on a calm sea

The Jungle

in this jungle of terrestrial life
tangled amongst the density
roaming under a silent stealth
passion waits with rapt intensity

covered softly in words of honey
attracting the ones unpledged
like stones falling into puddles
ripples fanning out full-fledged

time meanders through days
climaxing into months and years
subdued in the jungle of our lives’
effacing all the tears and fears

pending the sunlight of clearing
traversing through ordered chaos
searching through the emotions
among the ecstasy of the pathos

the jungle is captivating and bold
enduring the solemn reassuring
succumbing to the sweetness
strong and so deeply alluring

Poem of Rhyme and Rhythm.

Roses are red.
Violets are blue.
Sugars are sweet but surely not you.

Broken hearts permeate the web.
Spreading vile and hostile vibes.
Heal the wounds to enjoy the web.
New vibes of love and happiness.
Peace and joy to sweet surf of the web.

Rail yard

I saw men from back country rail yards
drunk under a moon of silver sovereigns
yelling tales of the rail lines
from north to south, east to west
while the fires burned down in the drum
amongst the weathered men
there is a fevered bliss
known only to the railways
steel machismo
little vanity prevails
rolling with an orange dawn
