English/Czech poem Alone/Osamělá

This is the last poem that I have managed to translate.  I will resume translating more of my poems into Czech after the holidays.  I originally wrote this poem in 1967.




ALONE

The wind
howled

I felt a surge
of emotion
rush
through me
Leaves crackled
underfoot
Trees
reached
for me
Autumn
echoed
in every
woebegone
niche
As I
broke
into
a run

Osamělá

Vítr kvílí
Cítím se
photo art by AVR
vzplanutím emocí
prorostlá
Listí
pod nohama
šustí
Stromy
vztahují
ke mně své paže
A já
cítím podzim
v každém
zanedbalém výklenku
A dávám se
do běhu
