Nocturnal Alley in the Light of Bougainvillea
And the streets were dark, full of mystery,
and the old mansions closed tight their heavy gates,
yet a distant gleam, like a divine omen,
poured light into the silence and into their dreams.
Napoleon Lapathiotis, The Poems (1939 Edition)
Poem "Nocturnal", Published in Poetic Works, Zikakis Publishing House.
