AN ASTROPOETIC DIALOGUE ABOUT COMETS WITH ALEX VIZITIU
By Andrei Dorian Gheorghe
.
.
I must mention that the original Romanian version of Alex Vizitiu's astropoem (which I translated into English) was written with rhythm and rhyme.

THE COMET
By Alex Vizitiu
.
A comet is joy
shining late in the sky and
passing by in a hurry, a magic
and a kiss from the void.
.
A comet is a flying fire,
a gentle thrill of infinity
awakening the world that
descends incessantly in dreams.
.
A comet is a memory
born from chaos,
a star of life, the gaze
that searches for a past.
.
A comet is a question:
how long will we be here
to look at the heavenly beams?
.
Then, again,
we will find ourselves…
in dreams!
.
COMET HAIKU
By Andrei Dorian Gheorghe
.
It’s sad - said a comet -,
I can’t carry deep sky objects
on my tail!
