A Poem for You, Dear Readers
Anna Akhmatova’s “The door is half open . . .”
The door is half open,
The sweet smell of limes . . .
On the table, forgotten,
A whip and a glove.
The lamp’s yellow glow . . .
Things rustle all round.
Why did you go?
I don’t understand.
More clearly I’ll see
Tomorrow with fresh eyes
That life is beautiful.
Heart, just be wise.
You’re completely worn out—
Beating sluggishly . . .
You know, I read somewhere
That souls do not die.
17 February 1911, Tsarskoye Selo
