Melody of the Soul 

The melody of the soul has a sound, 
Sublime vibrations that cannot be seen by the human eye 
Music conveys lofty thoughts that touch other people's hearts. 

I don't know the melody of my heart, 
I write about God and I know that such topics are heard far and wide 
When many people tell me that my words touched them, 
Through the poem, through my words and the image of a smiling 
Maya I know that I am fulfilling my goal. 

The song sings for me and the whole world hears it. 
It doesn't matter that I don't know the melody of my soul because 
I am surrounded by people who love me 
And send me hearts and huge bouquets of roses.

Maja Milojković was born in 1975 in Zaječar, Serbia. She is a person to whom from an early age, Leonardo da Vinci's statement "Painting is poetry that can be seen, and poetry is painting that can be heard" is circulating through the blood. That's why she started to use feathers and a brush and began to reveal the world and herself to them. As a poet, she is represented in numerous domestic and foreign literary newspapers, anthologies and electronic media, and some of her poems can be found on YouTube. Many of her poems have been translated into English, Hungarian, Bengali and Bulgarian due to the need of foreign readers. She is the recipient of many international awards. "Trees of Desire" is her second collection of poems in preparation, which is preceded by the book of poems "Moon Circle".  She is a member of the International Society of Writers and Artists "Mountain Views" in Montenegro, and she also is a member of the Poetry club "Area Felix" in Serbia.
