PURPLE LOVE
(a poem dedicated to Gordana Brajović)

Gordana dwells
in purple poems,
which tread across the sky.
Gordana lives
on pale blue clouds,
with purple raindrops
coming down on us.

Gordana,
on a starry pillow
dreams of
a cherry tree
where purple
earrings grow.
Gordana dreams of her Subotinac,
of Filip, Ana, and that purple
love of theirs.

Gordana dwells
in our poems
that delicate scent of love spread.
Gordana,
the name of love
for purple poems
to blossom.

So today, in this poem,
for Gordana only,
a dress of blue skies I’ve made
and in a cherry blossom bunch,
I tucked some barefoot butterflies
with a couple of loves,
and left it on a far away star.

There is a purple world,
in Subotinac,
made of Gordana’s love
and hearts that beat blue and white
under an umbrella for two, like a flower,
amidst grass, fresh with dew.
Out of Gordana’s love
boys and girls grow,
while dreaming of strange birds
with purple chirrup ,
and an occasional swallow
and yellow-haired sunflowers.

So today, in this poem,
for Gordana only,
a hat of heavens I’ve made
a butterfly as a ribbon,
with a pair of daybreak shoes
and cherries as earrings
to quiver in the breeze.

Today
I tasted a purple kiss,
under her cherry tree…
Maybe, right now, somewhere in the heavens,
Gordana writes poems about me…

I am extremely pleased and proud to be the parent of a Savremena student. During my first encounter with the school management, when I asked about my child’s potential enrolment, I saw how much love, enthusiasm and professionalism you put in your work. I was impressed by your approach, ideas and methods. I couldn’t believe something like this existed in our country! It doesn’t take long to realise that this is a school you would recommend to everyone. Creativity, modern technology, top-quality education, and most of all, the humaneness that can be seen throughout the school, make it truly different and worthy of its name – Savremena Gimnazija. With such an approach, the success of this school and, consequently, our children’s success, is unavoidable. Congratulations! Jelena Đorđević, Andrija’s mum
