Carissima In Deliciis: April 2008

¡Qué hermosa y qué encantadora eres, amor mío, con todos tus encantos!

Published Friday, April 25, 2008 by O. Elias Lira.

La tierra giró para acercarnos
giró sobre sí misma y en nosotros,
hasta juntarnos por fin en este sueño
como fue escrito en el Simposio.
Pasaron noches, nieves y solsticios;
pasó el tiempo en minutos y milenios.
Una carreta que iba para Nínive
llegó a Nebraska.
Un gallo cantó lejos del mundo,
en la previda a menos mil de nuestros padres.
La tierra giró musicalmente
llevándonos a bordo;
no cesó de girar un solo instante,
como si tanto amor, tanto milagro
sólo fuera un adagio hace mucho ya escrito
entre las partituras del Simposio.

[Eugenio Montejo - Caracas Venezuela 1938]

Esa tu casa

Esa tu casa
En íntima medida.

Esa tu casa
Trébol caminante
Llegando luminoso.

Tu siempre casa
Con techos de humo

Habitan el encanto
Del nido mismo.

[Rosa Melo - Poemario inédito: "La Casa Adormecida"]

Barry White: You're the First, the Last, My Everything ♪

Published by O. Elias Lira.

My first, my last, my everything,
You're the answer to all my dreams.
You're my sun, my moon, my guiding star.
My kind of wonderful, that's what you are.

I know there's only, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two.
You're, you're all I'm living for
Your love I'll keep for evermore.
You're the first, my last, my everything.

In you I've found so many things,
A love so new, only you could bring.
Can't you see if you,
You'll make me feel this way,
You're like a first morning dew on a brand new day.

I see so many ways that I can love you,
'Till the day I die....
You're my reality, yet I'm lost in a dream.
You're my first, my last, my everything.

I know there's only one, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two.
Girl, you're my reality.
But I'm lost in a dream,
You're the first, you're the last, my everything.
