First prize in poetry

Puisse la paix régner dans le monde
TATOMIR ION MARIUS


Une seule prière monte vers le ciel,
une seule prière qui parle de tout,
de toutes les fleurs
qui ont mouru dans les guerres,
de tous les enfants qui ont cessé de jouer,
une seule prière flamboyante,
née de l'inspiration envoyée par la Divinité,
quand sera exprimée par chaque nation,
l'entière humanité,
La Paix embrassera doucement les hommes,
en une harmonie universelle,
Et quand ces choses seront realité
accompagnez-moi en disant de tout coeur:

PUISSE LA PAIX REGNER DANS LE MONDE!

Dreaming – A Love poem from the collection
“Life is a dream” – Pirandello

Often I think I am dreaming
but awaken to find all is real,
to be with you a joy beyond dreaming,
together, in harmony to feel,
for one’s life is like a dream
in which one often awakes
in many different times and places
so that one must just trust to the flow
of its events, as they come and go,
guided by Muses, Graces, Guardian Angels!

David Allen Stringer




Third Prize in Poetry

SKY TEAR
Robert Victor (Bob) Schweitzer

A tear falls from the sky
No one bothers to wonder why
It’s just I guess, passing by
This lonely tear from the sky

Splashes softly on the ground
It splatters but it makes no sound
No one even looks around
And if they did, what would be found?

Oh I don’t know, but there might be
A realization of the history
Taking place while so many bleed
It’s all around, this killing need

I think He may just shake His head
So many creations, laying dead
They could have saved the world instead
Now they just lay full of lead

I will listen to the tear
I think I’ll stop and shed one here
Now it seems so strangely queer
That this world is so full of fear

A tear falls
From the sky
And no one bothers
To wonder why

LÁGRIMA CELESTIAL
Robert Victor (Bob) Schweitzer
Translation by Maria Cristina Azcona


Una lágrima del cielo cayó
Nadie quiere saber por qué
Yo sólo inquiero la verdad
Sobre la lágrima que vertió el cielo.

Se aplasta suave en el suelo
Se desparrama sin un ruido
Nadie buscó su sentido
Y si lo hizo no encontró el motivo.

Oh, no sé, pero debe haber
Una explicación para esta historia
Que sucede mientras tantos sangran
Está por doquier, esta matanza.

Pienso que Dios golpea su cabeza
Cuando ve a tantos creados muertos
En cambio Él los hubiera salvado
Y ahora sólo hay cuerpos regados.

Escucharé a esa lágrima
Me detendré y lloraré.
Porque ahora todo es tan extraño
Este mundo pleno de miedo y daño.



Una lágrima cayó
Desde el cielo llegó
Y nadie quiere saber por qué
Ni tampoco lo quiere ver.
