Warm in the serene kitchen, we sat amongst poets ...



After From Romania with Love we walked back to Chelsea Road - 

We passed frozen villas under a sky full of stars - 

A cruise ship spilled its wanton light upon the dark sea -

Late night diners reeled out of louche eateries - 

The Deco was closing its doors - 

Warm in the serene kitchen, we sat amongst poets - 

Elena described the art of translation - 

Ed told me about the M33

I drank richly flavoured coffee from a delicate white cup - 

Bottled summers were poured into generous glasses - 

The cold night was banished for a while -
