WHO IS THE pOET ?

The Poet is the language,the mystery of Monalisa's smile,

 

the brush of Caravaggio and the finest painting of Vangogh.

 

The Poet is the sonnet of Mozart anf the symphony of Bach,

 

a tragedy of Shakespeare and the saddest verse of Pablo Neruda.

 

The Poet is the blue Danube in waltz and the Swan Lake in Ballet.

 

The Poet is the renaissance of passion and the remnant of life,

 

the dilemma of morality,the shadow of deed,and the ombra of sin.

 

The Poet is the fantasy of each Sunrise and the illusion of every Sunset,

 

the wave in tide of wishes,carried in a bottle to  dune drunk shore.

 

The Poet is the believer, dream lover in a hot passionate crazy affair,

 

the magician who creates fables and fairytales from a deadly reality.

 

The Poet is the worker who works and works to survive,to cope in this

 

demanding,sophisticated,stigmatic  concrete hypocratic world.

 

The Poet is the thief of time,with eyes flutterin on late nights,

 

Still loyal to the pen,His thoughts  in verse,bleedin fragranted words.

 

The Poet is an Omnipotent servant,with a will to ask and crave to learn.

 

A Philosopher,whose always an amateur in the pursuit of wisdom.

 

The Poet is an eternal slave of His Muse,the beverage of inspiration,

 

the spouse married to literature,adulterer of lyric,deceiver of prose.

 

He Knows no lapsus in all that is scandalous,royalty or sacred.

 

He is the artist, musician, actor,the clairvoyant  of destined paths.

 

He is the cheap clay's mold,carved in the sculpture of the next century.

 

The Poet is the unfinished book,the chapter in yesterday,

 

He is the Nobody of today and the bookmark  of tomorrow.
