Poetic Lineage

Describing my lineage ,    
I'm a son of
word and verse,
of the sword and the shell ...
I am the fruit of love
gestation of the rose and the carnation ...
I'm made of:
bones and flowers,
flesh and dreams
of muscles and truth,
but mainly I am
made of poetry ...!





 lirics of the song EU CANTO below the URL

   Eu canto
Fagner & Cecília Meirelles
do disco "Eu canto (Quem viver chorará)"

Eu canto
Porque o instante existe
E a minha vida está completa
Não sou alegre nem sou triste
Sou poeta
Irmão das coisas fugidias
Não sinto gozo nem tormento
Atravesso noites e dias
No vento
Se desmorono ou se edifico
Se permaneço ou me desfaço
Não sei se fico
Ou passo
Eu sei que canto e a canção é tudo
Tem sangue eterno a asa ritimada
E um dia eu sei que estarei mudo
Mais nada

Hello Alakas, oh, you wrote this poem in two different languages. This is nice to see a poem like this written differently. I like the way you described yourself as a line age son of verse. and the son of the word and the verse. Salute Darlene xxxx-oooo
