In the Blue Port of Your Eyes

Original painting by CECILE DELIKOURAS

"In the blue port of your eyes,
An audible rain of light,
Dizzy suns, And sails,
Paint a journey to the absolute.

In the blue port of your eyes,
Snow falls in July,
And pregnant boats with turquoise,
Who sank the ocean but did not drown.

In the blue port of your eyes,
I run as a small child on the rocks,
Inhale the smell of the sea,
And I go back as a tired bird.

In the blue port of your eyes,
I dream of the sea and sailing,
And fishing millions of satellites,
Necklaces of pearls and tulips.

If I, If I were a sailor,
If someone gives me a boat,
I’d lay my anchor every evening,
In the blue port of your eyes."
