Cosmic Multicultural Bucharest in the Pandemic (222):
GAM 2022 - Astronomy in the Botanical Garden
(My Presentation)
By Andrei Dorian Gheorghe (astro-photo-poem), Valentin Grigore (photos from the event) and Florin Alexandru Stancu (design)
When I told the students at the University of Bucharest
about astropoetry, cosmopoetry and astrohumanism,
as well as about the cultural activities of SARM,
I felt like a real professor.
I also included in my presentation
the recitation of some astroproverbs in verse
(from my book “Not Everything That Flies Is A Comet”).
I reproduce one of them below
(of course, an imperfect translation
from the Romanian language):
The light of the stars vibrates over
the multitude of beings, while
astronomers constellate, more or less,
any true consciousness.
In the first break
I noticed that some students
were watching Sirius with sympathy,
who had come to attend
their memorable astronomical evening.
