Lithuanians listen to wolfs
Lithuanians listen to landscapes
Lithuanian is a beautiful language
Beauty listens to shyness
and in the sound of emptiness filled with meanings
shyness becomes natural
while nature becomes part of your being
Wolfs are made of iron
Landscapes are made of past and presence
Language is made of melodies
and reminds you that
every tone comes out of silence
This poem I wrote after having been invited to the Poetry Festival Between Tongues, part of the International Spring Poetryfestival Vilnius 2017.
I dedicate it to all those who I met there, who made time great, who invited me, sharing the passion for poetry and literature, overcoming borders of nations and languages. (Marco Grosse)
