Diffraction of a Dream: A Collection of Poems

By Amalia Marina Protopsalti

"Diffraction of  a Dream" is the journey of a woman's soul in love who follows her heart to find the man with whom she is in love in her Dream.   This tenacious soul is determined to walk  "towards the impossible. "Through the magic path of poetry the soul follows the intricate, billowy pattern of passionate loves in her path of life "Then all my words and utterances have always / Been meant for you; "and finally reaches the glory of self-knowledge, "For the days of the bleeding rose are gone  "self-sufficiency and self-triumph  "Making the real / Come into surface / Out of nothing at all...."   This journey is a universal imagery of earthy, heavenly, and marine "emerald mirrors", "silver reflections of the moon", "flame of stars" and "Dangling memories". The man of her Dream in an Arthur-like way meets in a totally pure way the feminine element and walks towards his "exhilarating Destiny." The woman meets her own unique moons on her travelling to find him and she talks sensually to the Moon "My affection caressing your powder skin".   The Moon sings and the "Sea Dancers" follows the "Chrysalis Song" and the "Prayer". "Talk to me Silence" the soul utters after "S for Seduction" has inundated her.   Nature, everything around, the Moon, the Sun, the stars, the breeze even the gems conspire to her journey, "in this act / in this play".   It is a journey where the soul in the end gains out of pain her own narcissistic attitude  "And transform its Alphabet / Into a whipping charm".   Could it be the "glittering breeze of the Sun" the beauty around oneself where the Dream begins, instead of searching passionatelly in eveyday life? Maybe this is "The Opening Night of the Heart".
