Beautifully crafted poem. Well translated. Extraordinary poet.

Massive talent, bold and searching himself for the truth of his importance and very existence. I believe the translators must have made an extraordinary effort to bring us his words. Excellent poet.

For one thing! ! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.

What a great poem! I certainly can relate. And what a great encouragement to embrace who we are. For those of you who read this and like great poetry anthologies in English, see the one he edited with the title A Book of Luminous Things. -GK

Such a great poem penned by Czeslaw Milosz.....

Sometimes we act in haste without thinking when our enotion gets the better of us.

Temperate musings about volatile emotions; calm and persuasive.
