Poetry – Milan Šelj – War is different when it has a human face

We sit on the terrace.

Warm sun rays bounce off our faces.

Vesna*, says Tatyana and closes her eyes.

Primavera? I ask her and she nods assent.

 

We laugh like children, and we all applaud each time

a Ukrainian word resembles one in Slovenian.

 

*Spring
