Now that the end of 2014 is approaching, what could be more suitable but the poem Task of a Poet by Dejan Stojanovich? I hope you will enjoy it as I do! To hear never-heard sounds, To see never-seen colors and shapes, To try to understand the imperceptible Power pervading the world; To fly and find pure ethereal substances That are not of matter But of that invisible soul pervading reality. To hear another soul and to whisper to another soul; To be a lantern in the darkness Or an umbrella in a stormy day; To feel much more than know. To be the eyes of an eagle, slope of a mountain; To be a wave understanding the influence of the moon; To be a tree and read the memory of the leaves; To be an insignificant pedestrian on the streets Of crazy cities watching, watching, and watching. To be a smile on the face and shine in memory As a moment saved without planning. Dejan Stojanovic is a Serbian poet, writer,essayist, philosopher, businessman, and former journalist.
