MorePoezije

Ne biramo kako, gdje i kad se rađamo
nije potrebito da se oko toga svađamo
na način da se uzdižemo ili ponižavamo
umjesto da se u toj realnosti zbližavamo.

Majka ne zna tko u njenoj utrobi raste
svatko baš isto, sa trona ili iz neke kaste
ljudsko biće sazrijeva i kada odraste
odleti svojoj sreći i cilju kao jugu laste.

Život je prvenstveno dar koji se dobija
ljubavlju nastane i njome se samo povija
sve drugo su izlog, cijena i ambalaža
istinskom životu samo sigurna kamuflaža.

U kojem slažemo kutije prepune stvari
tražimo u njima tek nepostojeće čari
one ne mirišu, ne govore niti osluškuju
prtljaga su i sa nama zajedno putuju.

Dok ljudsko biće očarava i oživljuje
čini da se osjećamo prijatnije, divnije
nadahnjujuće, sretno i tako posebno
da možemo djelovati sasvim osobno.

Biti svoji onako po zamišljenoj slici
Bog je to odredio u stvaralačkoj skici
već tada nam je darovao sposobnosti
koje određuju put unikatnoj osobnosti.

Svako biće je neponovljivo i svoje
po njemu se dani i događaju kroje
užitak je, čak i ponos susretati ljude
neke tuđe ili one sa svoje rodne grude.

Ali najljepše je pronaći osobu onu
sa kojom se osjećaš kao da si na tronu
zbog koje vidiš cijeli svijet tako lijepim
dok u sebi se osjećaš sretnim i svetim.

S ljubavlju, Željka.

We do not choose how, where,
or when we are born,
so there is no need to argue about it,
to exalt ourselves or put ourselves down,
instead of drawing closer through that reality.

A mother does not know
who is growing in her womb;
each of us is born the same—whether from a throne or from some caste.
A human being matures and, when grown,
flies toward happiness and purpose,
like a swallow flying south.

Life is first and foremost a gift we receive;
it is born through love and
wrapped in love alone.
Everything else is merely a display,
a price, and packaging—
only safe camouflage for true life.

Within it, we arrange boxes
filled with things,
searching inside them
for nonexistent charms.
They do not smell, speak, or listen;
they are luggage that travels along with us.

While a human being
enchants and brings life,
making us feel more comfortable,
more wonderful,
inspired, happy, and truly special,
so that we can express ourselves completely.

To be ourselves, just as in the
image we have imagined—
God determined this in
the blueprint of creation.
Even then, He gave us abilities
that shape the path to a unique personality.

Every being is unrepeatable and
uniquely itself;
our days and events are shaped accordingly.
It is a joy, even a source of pride,
to meet people—those from elsewhere or
those from our native land.

But the most beautiful thing
is to find that one person
with whom you feel as though
you are on a throne,
because of whom you see
the whole world as so beautiful,
while within yourself you feel
happy and blessed.

With love, Željka.
