The Sava and Danube Confluence
The Sava and Danube Confluence
The Sava and Danube Confluence
Rosy radiance
arises from Zemun
a swimmer
from the south comes
a dialogue starts
on the spot where two rivers embrace
this is not a fugitive
or a line of sufferers
but a deep foundation dug
the one carrying the stone
is Stephan
the founder.
