“We lay on the ground near a spring and you played on a pipe. We found you amazing, enchanting, but also a little frightening. I remember one evening Ilia and Liat made a wreath of oak leaves and arranged it on your head. At that moment I wouldn’t have minded if you’d slept with one of them in front of my eyes.

Now you sit and cover pages every night, but the poet isn’t there anymore.
