LADYLOVE

While "The Kreutzer Sonata"

Agitates you endlessly,

When there is not yet the point of no return,

And beating of the heart in unison takes place,

Let pay for everything in the future,

Let crimson sunset will burn down,

But the Ladylove – it is as if sacred,

It is as icon’s expensive frame.

To be frank, I am so glad,

That you live in the rhythm of the scherzo,

Planets lined up in a row,

When the Ladylove is next to you!

“I REMEMBER A WONDERFUL MOMENT”

Anna Pavlovna Kern, Mendeleeva Luba

Lilya Brik, Isadora Duncan ...

How many are those who were Ladylove of poets,

Who twined numerously delicate figure?

Pushkin, Blok, Mayakovsky, Yesenin,

Dante, Byron, all are countless,

Ladylove, you were sung by all of them,

Oh, so many people in the word paid homage to you!

That there is sin to conceal, because everyone hopes

At the fame and glory, laurel wreath,

Only the point is that not everyone

Meets its long-awaited magic flower!

Without it, you cannot write about the "wonderful moment",

And about embodiment of fondest dream

"Like a fleeting vision,

Like a genius of pure beauty ..."

YOU ARE THE FAST STREAMS OF RIVER

You are the fast streams of river

In which we cannot set foot on twice,

You loved me once,

And now we are separated...

Oh, those days were wonderful,

Sparkling like droplets of cascade,

And feelings were pouring like waterfall,

I feel the beating pulse of your trembling hands!

My greedy eyes try to keep in memory forever

All your graceful gestures.

You are my diamond, award of destiny!

But how short was a wonderful moment,

When I truly comprehended

The beauty of Eden!
