A poem about poets’ first love.
Image via Wikipedia
Since the beginning,
every human being who
had blossomed the utterance,
spent countless hours
bridling and containing
the fast horses of the dawn,
in search of it.
It was by the mythical fountain
of the witty smile,
that the eyes of people met
around the fire.
They said that men and women
had visited the place
–that many still do–,
witnessing the timeless beauty
of heaven and earth;
the wondrous sunny valleys
where humans gropingly learn
the skills of gods
and the joys of goddesses.
Ah, that simple, blue space
endorsed by the clear
signs of the stars and seasons!,
where kings, whose silence shone
within their bossom,
and queens, whose words
became peace itself, finally
got transfigured into poets.
They later explained
the workings of time,
when all this was a simple,
uncomplicated weaving
deep into the masterful cacoon
made of words, and thoughts.
Those deserving the voice
of the owls;
those who merited the flight
of the eagles,
wrote about this love,
not precisely found in books,
or at the twisted,
garbled synapses of the brain.
