Alexander Pushkin a Moment to Remember

A personal story in the experience: I Love Poetry

A magic moment I remember: 
I raised my eyes and you were there. 
A fleeting vision, the quintessence 
Of all that's beautiful and rare. 

I pray to mute despair and anguish 
To vain pursuits the world esteems, 
Long did I near your soothing accents, 
Long did your features haunt my dreams. 

Time passed- A rebel storm-blast scattered 
The reveries that once were mine 
And I forgot your soothing accents, 
Your features gracefully divine. 

In dark days of enforced retirement 
I gazed upon grey skies above 
With no ideals to inspire me, 
No one to cry for, live for, love. 

Then came a moment of renaissance, 
I looked up- you again are there, 
A fleeting vision, the quintessence 
Of all that`s beautiful and rare.
