\”Beneath the sanguine gaze of Luminița Șerbănescu’s striking artworks, Mihaela Cristescu’s lyrical lines shimmy and sway to the beat of an ever-hopeful heart. Moments become movements, drawing us deep into a stream of emotion that washes away belief and expectation. All that is left are hints of ‘kisses coming down to shoulders’ and ‘unspoken words of wisdom’.\” – Dannielle Viera
BEFORE SPRING COMES
Before spring comes
sounds will fade through silence
and I will touch things, thinking of wheels –
the perfect circles of love
rolling into the old road
of beginning.
Still raining for now
I am checking the quotes in a book brought from overseas
hoping they would remind me of your place
of the greatest Greek City of Priam and his treasure:
wearing it, digging it, dreaming it
so I can feel his ear trouble
Sophia, Sophia, Sophia
as they say, Schliemann did not discover Troy
but entered its gates fearfully.
Before spring comes
in good and in bad,
in sickness and in health
the perfect circles of love
rolling into the old road
of beginning.
