i just found out today that on poemhunter.com
on the 26th of January, The Child of The Sun was selected as the POEM OF THE DAY:
and this makes me very very happy 🙂
The Child of The Sun
it is a shadow,
of the tree
dark lighting
at the zenith of the day, tasting
the sweat on the man's forehead
the child of the sun

of grass
opaque existence
angle of light
in the calmness of the earth
the child of the sun
it is a shadow
silently
following the man, to the water spring
in the valley of springs
the mother sun
quenches its thirst
with the tears of the earth
the child of the sun
it is a shadow

In the last 3 years I have been devoted, waking up every morning at 4:30-5am, writing whatever was coming, whatever my psychic was breathing out over the night, without questioning, I was there waiting for the invisible, facing it, receiving it as a gift and converting it into poems.
and today seeing this I am like a newborn, and I receive the message like ”the show must go on, baby ...:)”

No matter what we do as work, or create, in us, we carry the need to know that there out, somewhere in this world is someone appreciating what we do, invent, or imagine. There is no other way ...
