                MUSINGS               
(Free translation  from Russian by the author  Yosef Latman)
               
Old tree...  I look at him with a pain in heart of mine.
The roots, after years,  having gnarled, as hands,      
They seized  in  the ground... As a soldier in the line,
The trunk, tried and tested life, is motionless...
Only a breeze, playfully, as if from boredom,
Sometimes  shakes sleepy branches slightly...
The leaves  little rustle,  and  then,
Yellows, are falling into an abyss of parting.

Old tree... I look at him with pain...
