Quote for Today: Edith Södergran

4941943344_a73773b178_z

In far-off lands stand the great stones
on which my thoughts rest.
It was a foreigner who wrote the strange words
on the hard board that is called my soul.
Days and nights I lie and think
about things that never happened:
my thirsty soul was once given a drink.
Edith Södergran, Poems 1916
