He tried the city

of the author of Greece

Nobel laureate and poet

for he had already heard

from his Muse

about the only novel

from G. Seferis

but in English only available

in the USA. Imagine!

But a friend would gladly

endeavour to get a copy

From her friend in the USA.

Never before had it be so

difficult

to obtain one book

even at a moderate price.

What’s wrong with education

exchange of knowledge

stealing the top place

of a Nobel laureate’s novel

for the enlightened?

It’s a blessing to have

good friends

at least one will keep

his interests going

recalling the intellectual

care of one’s Greek Muse.

And this on the eve of

one’s birthday.

So great.

So cool.
