Night

In darkness I feel

Well

Covered by its navy-blue

I can dream…

To be myself in my

World

And to make stories

From the magic book

Sometimes I manage

To overhear a conversation

Of night gnomes

Maybe one day they will reveal

Their secrets

I will find a treasure

I will secretly enter their world

To stay there   forever.

“Satisfied Need”

Lack of space

Lack of wind on face

Lack of close touch

But if you love me I lack nothing. 

             Anon (Poland)

To blame everyone or not?

Because of the technology

The world became smaller. How fast

You can communicate

With America.

So let’s praise the scholars and the saints.

They connect continents

But why is it sometimes so far

To the man standing next to you?!

Do we have to blame everybody.

That the one, who so close to you

In not your intimate?!…
