Poem for life

When arriving the spring
the sun changes its shades
and it is that the night is
night is that the afternoon is early
and it is that the breeze of the sea gives more
shine to the waves.

fall the leaves of the trees
and it seems that they died
but impossible is not death, it is life
because they return, other leaves to cover the same tree
it is life that is reflected
in the song of the birds, in the noise of the breeze
in the gleams of the sun,
but mainly in the soul
because it is the moment of loving.

To love to nature, to love to the sweet thing and the bitter thing
that in essence it is not another
saw that to love and to live
because to love is to live.


The freedom

It is something so special, only and unconditional
Nobody has imperium to attempt to kill it, it is that
death doesn't exist when of her one must speak
there is no difference of classes when
we must look for it

It is that the big ones, the boys
without cultural distinction
when it comes, danger
elbow to elbow, must fight
because it is that to live without her is as dying
each instant without stopping

All that there is here has been said
it is very little really and
it is that she is very big
and she calls herself "Freedom"

A different world

A special world for you and me
A special bond one can not see
It wraps us up in it's cocoon
And holds us in it's womb.

Our fingers spread like we are one soul
taking us to another world
Bonds like this are meant to last

And though at times a thread may break
A new one forms in its wake
to bud us closer and keep us strong
in a special world where we belong


I still haven't recieved her second poem.
