In Seventh Heaven
Tamara Bradonjic was born in 1981 in Kragujevac, Serbia. She graduated in English language and literature from the Faculty of Philology in Belgrade in 2005. Besides being a teacher, she is also trained as a translator in the Association of Scientific and Technical Translators of Serbia. She has been teaching for 16 years at a primary school “Milan Blagojevic” in Natalinci. In her work, she combines various techniques, such as working with two or more classes at the same time. Translation is her hobby, especially translating legal and economic documents for university professors. Teaching is learning, and teaching children should motivate us to be learners at the same time. Her other hobbies are listening to music, reading books and writing poetry.
In Seventh Heaven
The moment I set my eyes on you first
there's nothing to quench my thirst
my life no longer knows for equality
it's you who makes sense of my reality.
Very frequently you come to my dreams
it looks quite unreal still it seems
that only you can make me happy
close to you, I will never feel lonely.
Only you are present in my heart
who knows whether that’s so smart
but I believe you are my destiny
in my mind, we'll reach eternity.
You're the bright star shining only for me
yours are the eyes through which mine see
all the beauties of earthly existence
with you in my heart I reject evanescence .
Feels like the universe is in your smile
hold me close, never again will I cry
you are the golden mirror of my soul
guidance in my life and its only role.
Kiss me tenderly, coldness will melt away
I love you more and more day by day
there are so many words I'd like to say
but I'm giving you my love, come what may.
