FLOWERS FROM THE HEART

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

To Leda.

Jubilant you are, in the name and in the look.
In your such pure and well formed soul,
There are so rutilant light effluviums
That enchant and wake up the birds.

 

You have in the smile a sweet enchantment,
As flowers the perfume strongly smelling,
Your longings, you keep them with modesty:
Never let them to anybody to suspect...

 

You support, as the cedar in the forest,
The windstorm that destroys where it passes,
You face courageous the pain that kills,
Without complaints, with courage and hope.

 

Your beautiful eyes stare the indigo sky
In ecstasies, dreaming, you see thousand lucks.
The dreams that you wove and beautiful ideals
They are rosy thoughts in prisms of crystals.
