FLOWERS FROM THE HEART

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

To my first granddaughter Nancy

Your eyes are serene green,
They have shades of the waves of the sea.
To sing them in these gracious stanzas,
Remind me the angels with blue eyes.

Your such beautiful and fleeting smile,
To seduce with it you are capable,
Because, the grace that you have in speaking:
It is of the lilies and more nenuphar.

Of your rose color lips,
I want to hear your singing...
And in such longing nights,
I will with you to dream.

When I sad find myself,
In a garden alone, longing so much
Lamenting...
With your satiny hand
Come, oh! flower, to caress me.

With orange blossoms
I will gird you the hair,
Of white, you will dress,
Of stars a veil you will have.

In the lap taking you flowers,
Your mother to your side you will have
And your Father, in songs of loves,
In hugs and kisses you will see.

And so, decanted you will be
In my verses of poor splendor,
They are sincere and full of love,
Where shelter in my chest you will have.
