Saraca Inima Me

--outside Biertan, Romania
Saraca Inima Me (My Sorrowing Heart) Hush, my heart. There is still the light through the windows, fields that remember you. Past the yellow church beside the forest, hush. I've had to learn the case of waiting. Somewhere, in autumns, the songs grow surer with waiting. You cannot hurry through hurt. Quiet. Still. Slow, like those swallows along the rooftops. Color upon a shawl. World, loving its long evenings in silence.
