Raining Rubies | Dessy Tsvetkova

With a sword raised

With a sword raised
towards the sun,
they used to rule the land
for centuries.

The sword
which
looks so much
like an elongated cross ...

But nowadays
the cross
is embodied
by a dove 
with outstretched wings.

Cross,
  that flies
towards the sun
and to God.

Today

Today
from the sky
it's raining
rubies...

Red drops
of
grief...

They pour
hard,
cry
for the innocent 
as a belief...

They sprout
young
stalks...

One at a time
flower,
for each
soul...

The memory of peace

Loving fireflies
sharing all the joy...
Summer nights,
splendid tenderness of Eden...
Careless sunsets
of caressing sky glory,
soul enlightened by the heaven...
Chanted warming blessings.
Crickets symphonies of peace.
Travel back in time, enhancing...
Feeling of a childhood breeze...
