THOSE OTHER SOUNDS


Who hears the song
of the rivers running
incessantly towards
the sea...?

The sounds of the sun's rays
opening the morning curtains...?

Who hears the murmur
of the colors when
they are surprised
on the screens...?

Who notices the
natural whisper of the dew at the foot
of the mountain...?

And the clouds in the
sky sliding...?

Who hears the mystical song
of the autumn leaves falling... and

the mysterious music
of the night as it arrives...?

Who hears all this:
knows how to listen to the silence,
hears the calls of time
and the cries of life
passing...!
POETRY...!
