I studied at school, the Naval Academy at the navigational department “Deep sea navigator”, at the Institute at the construction department “Industrial and civil construction-ICC”. I lived and worked in Estonia, Tallinn. I attended a literary circle at the House of Fleet Officers under the guidance of the writer of the second rank captain Leonid Zaitsev, who wrote the book “Khanchula” and other works. After the collapse of the USSR, I worked as an entrepreneur. The manuscripts of poems and prose burned down because of the arson of the office by ill-wishers.

It is for what we strive
We often face the gaiety of life,
Which sometimes we cannot stand,
Family’s honor is for what we strive,
With mind and wisdom should we save it
And understand.
So that children had happy faces
There are still many dragons in the world,
With cold breath that causes heart to pound,
that want to coat with frost
The smiles of children,
Running around,
And to clap in irons life,
In the crystal chains,
Enclose it with an ice wall,
To freeze the human dream,
Like an icicle in early spring.
People of all races – team up,
And take each other’s hands
There’s no sense to fight,
Better to search for peaceful lands,
So as evil dragons in tales
left no signs, no traces,
So that life could bloom under the sun,
And children had happy faces!
Frozen star
Voidness has climbed to power,
As if the life has disappeared…
The heart is aching so much,
I feel bad whirling, so feared.
Strange thoughts are twisting in the mind,
As Gorynych breathing with rage,
Thought that we would live so long,
But frozen star has come to stage…
Here is your so called infinity,
Galactic Chaos…
Happiness can’t do for ages its activity,
It’s like catastrophic oasis…
Flowers
We should give flowers to women right today
And smile to them right now and today,
So as their dreams come true and stay
Not in a year, but right now, this day!!!
Morning
With a smile I look at the full morning,
Enjoy the sun, the foliage and water outside.
The feeling in my heart is forming
That I’ll murge into one with nature and will bide.
I’ll wander on the tops of trees,
On path, without touching grass,
I’ll swim to the clouds,
As if to feathers
And put my palm on their
Air-transparent brows.
I’ll get some water from the well
Vigorous water
And I’ll get drunk with their
Invigorating fortune.
Maybe I’ll turn to the fire of sun…
But will not burn because morning has come
I will smile from the height to the trees, to the grass
And to birds,
Because this morning I feel easy and so light!
You’re not the artwork love
You’re not the artwork love
Your life’s by me embraced.
You’re so spring-like,
By the grass and stones mashed.
And you mash me to pain,
As if it is for what you strive
To squeeze my life from brain
And say: I WANT TO FEEL ALIVE!
To Dima, my son
When, I hope, you grow up,
When life gives you the knowlegde,
I think you’ll be able to stand up
To find the clue to your own
Fortune…
You’re the smartest guy,
Who has the power to find
The clue; indulge yourself in light
for joy and dreams defined…
To Andrey, my son
If you got the cup
Of good and tasty wine,
Drink it, dear son,
By droplets
till the bottom shines.
And let the passion fill
