Poems by Themis

Blue Silence

Now all is over and done,

No vagrant dreams arise,

The magic of moon and sun

Is lost within the skies.

Now all is gathered peace

Within the heart's white cave,

The calm of shining seas

Uncreased by wind or wave.

Within these solitudes

No drunk earth-voices come,

Only blue silence broods

In caverns lone and dumb.
