Moments Of Vacation

 

The moon had reserved an intimate corner for us,

a beautiful evening by the endless shore,

it has always left us with memories,

always sitting close to us, side by side.

 

On your chest, it endlessly sprinkled stardust,

and the stars bathed you in their light,

so sweetly they brought an light bridal glow,

and the beautiful years forgotten aside.

 

Under the waltz of the waves that called out love,

we flew, intoxicated, in the watery expanses,

such beauties do not happen every day,

such beauties are wedding moments.

 

The waves came laughing with flowers in hand,

and gently caressed our great moments,

these vacation nights, a gilded moon,

and stars shining so brightly, I had never seen.

 

You Came...

 

You came quietly, serene,

like a breeze of flowers that comes sweetly,

that caresses and passes gently,

and leaves a butterfly in my heart.

 

This hot summer so intense,

you refreshed with your joy,

God wished for me to be so fortunate,

on these vacations like on the magic of a dream.

 

You revived a dead world,

a world that slept in the steppes,

a forgotten and faint voice,

that the waves casted upon the cliffs.

 

You ignited a quenched fire,

made your spirit to get light,

to the love that you had missed,

You reawakened all the melodies.

 

Come, Join With Us!

 

 (Haiku)

Summer smiles us,

The beach - hugs all the people,

The waves applaud.

Don't know how happy,

When merge myself in the songs,

That crowds sing around.

The skins like chocolate,

The sun paints them so sweetly,

As master painter does.

Come, join with us,

The summer flow, goes speedy,

It's far his return.

Don't Disturb Kids Smiles!

 (Senryu)

He wets the beachgoers,

And smiles them highly voice,

They take from his joy.

He discovers the world,

Can you do him happier?

Give him a big smile!

The world needs enough,

The future calls us today:

Don't disturb kids smiles!

 

Poetry

(Ars Poetica)

 

Poetry is a violin bow,

in the hands of the poet,

that makes the strings of the soul and heart

to yearn and tremble,

to fly with the wings

of feelings,

and rest in the magic of dreams.

 

Poetry is a conductor like spring,

that ignites the world with thousands of colors

and endless aromas,

makes the symphonies sing

and the soul and heart of a person

to emerge from the shadows.
