Salamis* Poem by Bozhidar Pangelov

Deep in the sea,
where the sun
doesn't reach
and the galleys
of Salamis sleep,
the fish-moons
pass
on tip-toe.

In yellow
the time is shining,
forged
to the oars
of once passed
foam
in flags
dreamers of eternity.

But it happens to me
(at an unsaid hour)
in the moon garden
of the sea
to meet the chained ones.

* Salamis - an island in Aegean Sea by which in October,480 BC the Greek Navy defeats the Persian one and turns the course of action of the Second Greco-Persian War in favor of Greece.
