A Portrait of Love

for Corredo

Her round eyes are like singers and actors
sing songs and perform
her lashes and brows
raindrops of sadness
preventing it from penetrating the mind
her soft, straight nose is on a snowy highway
her ruddy cheeks are the color of frontier ocher
her lips are smooth as the peel of an unripe peach,
there is a feeling of swelling that is not painful
her hairs are "S"  to one side
                                other side, "I"  like a falling falls
without fear,
cover her shoulders
her shoulders, trained by swimming,
point toward the sky
her neck is neither thin nor thick
supporting her forehead
Above all
She has  all things about Love:
saying the riposte of
passionate and strong waves.
