POETRY (2000 – 2001)
What we have left to listen to the old
His truth lived and dreamed.
What more remains for us to create,
Grow,
Think
And that the dream thread will not break.
All night long daydreaming,
Visiting stars,
Surrounded by cows.
Today I saw moon shadows.
Today I was first mountain.
He that beareth truth, endureth all.
Between sea and mountain
Between cane roads
With sun and good flower
My soul is strengthened.
