Our Friendship
I remember our
hours on the beach
our words
emptying the mind
our dreams
sailing ships
and happiness to promise us.
Then you tell me
about you
about pains that
hurt the heart
the eyes moist
and sad
with words of
flowers they find healing.
Your thorns come
out one by one
the hope is
rekindled
the roads are
opened, with white trains
with a loving
embrace.
That's how it
happens in this story
in this Ithaca
journey
which is
entitled "strong friendship"
two pearls in
the same oyster!
