MARJETA SHATRO RRAPAJ

 


 

Feeling...

 

I live in an earthly paradise among 40 saints

I talk to the sea every moment

Receiving the blessing of the Sun, the Moon

Shake thoughts like waves

Build castles of dreams without slowing down

Seeing and feeling the tides

Hearing the cries of birds

on the foamy waves

that fade on the shore

I am endlessly happy from the salty air

I feel blessed like a goddess...

 

Prayer...

 

Rises above the monotony of silence

Ribbing the space

A careful prayer

vibrates the clean air

Echoing in the sky of desires

Singing the same refrain without stopping

In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, Amen!

Light fills the being

With the biblical passion of making the cross

Turning into the divine in the magic of a few moments...
