The flamingos disappear in a blizzard and the girl concludes that they went "back to Florida for the winter. When her father's friends visit after his death, each brings a plastic pink flamingo, and the girl and her mother eventually sprinkle his ashes around them. I did everything for him that Mamma did when we were at home." Back at home, the girl and her parents talk about the cancer her mother says the father will die.

But he gravely misreads their literature who fails to perceive the grim resolve beneath the sorrow. The Slavonic temperament, too, is given to melancholy and seems to dwell congenially in an atmosphere misty with tears. To our western folk, reared in happier surroundings there is a bitter tang about some of them, somewhat like the taste of olives, to which one must grow accustomed. In these poems speaks the struggling soul of a downtrodden people. ![]() Read in English by Ron Altman Dominique van de Vorle Alan Mapstone Garfield Dsouza Trax Adrian Stephens Phil Schempf Larry Wilson Brianna Chiles Ken Masters Stefan Von Blon KevinS (Translated by Alexander Jardine Hunter.)
