FLOWERS FROM THE HEART

=====================================================================

Acrostic dedicated to Neusa,

for her birthday.

14th-10-1949

In a cradle you rocked the tender son,
And the breasts gasped in sweet affection.
A soft song at the sound of the fidle,
Dreaming I saw you: Like this, so gentle...
You loved, you dreamed, like the most tender Mother.

 

Although quiet, veiled, the husband,
Instants after, he began to speak:
Spouse, darling, the adored son,
While he falls asleep, he rests the glance.
Re-do the cheerful look in the chore,
The Love that we enjoy, leads us to the life...
