Forest Fires

Forest Fires
LOVE is a fire we can see;
it's a wound that destroys and kills;
it's a belief that wins in spread;
it's a never contentement with itself;
it's to want to be free by choice;
it's to serve who overcome, death.

///

O AMOR é um fogo que arde e se vê;
é ferida que destrói e mata;
é um cuidar que ganha em propagar-se;
é um nunca contentar-se de si próprio;
é querer estar livre por vontade;
é servir a quem vence, a morte.

by Armando TABORDA, 2017 (inspired in the sonnet "Amor é um fogo que arde sem se ver", by Luís Vaz de CAMÕES)

Não tenho palavras para expressar meus sentimentos ao povo português. Meu coração está dilacerado pelas pessoas e pelos animais, vítimas desse inferno de fogo. Seu poema é bonito, doloroso, apropriado!
Beijo, Armando!

I hear on the news and am sad at the fires and the destruction
it causes . . . so terrible for the wildlife also . . . and we are told that
this in the atmosphere is travelling to the uK also . . already we are
aware . . . for you, it must be terrible and I hope this soon is stopped . . .
