I should like to relate this memory …
but it is so faded now … scarecely anthing is left —
because it lies far off, in the years of my early manhood.
A skin as if made of jasmine …
that night in August — was it August? — that night …
I can just barely remember the eyes; they were, I think, blue …
Ah yes, blue; a sapphire blue.
Did you enjoy the the artible “Far Off” from Constantine P. Cavafy on OZOFE.COM? Do you know anyone who could enjoy it as much as you do? If so, don't hesitate to share this post to them and your other beloved ones.
