When happiness felt like a cool breeze of air on a hot July day
I could nearly swear that I saw the tree branches swinging at a melody imperceptible to anyone else,
In a foreign language , I understood what it said
“ Tilt your head back and let the current embrace you”
Whispering
“ Take it in your arms”.
When happiness irradiated from me
I felt intoxicated of all passions humanly possible
As if the love of Aglaea and Hephaestus had once again been revived
Is it possible?
Is it possible?
Is it possible for Ecleia to be reborn anew?
In a joyful conspiracy, the skies murmured
“Tell me what you see,”
“Tell me who you are”
Among the plants of glory, a water drop showed me that
when happiness arose at an unexpected time,
on a hot July day
Happiness had the same familiar features of a once dispirited being
Happiness was easeful and disturbingly calm
Happiness looked like me
Happy was I.
