Aleksandra Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 I passed the bridge created by you. I found the pearl hidden by you. Then I saw myself like a question in your sentence. The poet is a liar who always speaks the truth - Jean Cocteau History of Macedonia

I wish I could write something like this. ~~Tink Tink thank you so much for your lovely words on this poem. I love to write the lapidary poems. I was used on that style in the past, I mean in Macedonian language. And this one is old more than 5 years - for sure. And the origin is in Macedonian language, this is just translation. And I am glad just because of that, bc I see this one works in English language too. Thank you for reading Aleksandra The poet is a liar who always speaks the truth - Jean Cocteau History of Macedonia

tonyv Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 I passed the bridge created by you. I found the pearl hidden by you. Then I saw myself like a question in your sentence. This one is compact, Alek -- I like that! The pearl was hidden, but you nevertheless looked for it. Was it meant to be found?

Aleksandra Posted May 12, 2009 Author Posted May 12, 2009 Ha what a question. Did you get the point of the poem now ? I am now question in some of yours thoughts . Everything what is hidden is hidden to not be found. So the " pearl " too. Thank you Tony. I am glad that you think this is compact.
