ZANNETA KALYVA-PAPAIOANNOU


 ZANNETA KALYVA-PAPAIOANNOU


THE PEACEFUL BIRD
A joyful bird
flaps its wings
to get away from its cage
to fly freely in the sky.
Once it was flying down
near the earth and other times
it was flying in the clouds,
alone and free with pride.
It was always flying
in all the places of the earth
and it never rest during night
or in the midday.
A sweet message of peace
the white dove
bring to us,
for all the people of the world.
It was singing for freedom
and for brotherhood.
With an olive branch
it was praising the Peace.








YOUR ARMS
Essence of rose smell
your divine arms,
I slept and I woke up
with your loving kisses.








THIS MAN WHO SITS DOWN THERE

This man who sits down there deep in thought,
this man who sits down there in great distress
what could he think? What could he want?
This man who sits down there alone, near the table,
with open eyes and lips whom is he waiting for?
Maybe he is alone and he takes to drinking.
Maybe he was rejected or trying to forget.
This man who sits down there
he has a bitter taste on his lips.
His only friends are the tortures and the grief.








LOVE, COME AGAIN TONIGHT
Love, come again tonight
in the path of life
with a yearning in the heart.
Love, come again tonight,
feel the pleasure of youth,
the enchantment of soul.
Love, come again tonight
in the rise of life,
come, feel the hope,
the love,  the joy…
Love, come again tonight
in the dark of my heart,
hold me, take me in your arms
once more!!!
Love, come again tonight
in my dreams’ youth
and don’t go away never again !!!
