Table Of Contents

A couple of weeks ago my nephew, Razvan, surprised me with some nice poems he's written in Romanian.  Together we took on the task of translating one of them into English and here is the final product...  We hope you'll enjoy!

Table of Contents

I don’t have treasures, emeralds, rubies, or gold

Or anything that could fill up the feelings inside

I’m like a book missing its cover

Used by all who live in this rushing world,

People full of vain dreams and desert thoughts,

People who cannot see anything close to them anymore.

I have thousands of pages, some are white still…

For those who want their secrets to be bought

I’m not hiding, I’m on display, ready to be sold,

Ready for my pages to be written,

Ready to finally have a table of contents

With all these feelings so hard to unfold.
