O Berço do Espaço

THE SPACE'S CRADLE

I wait the mildness of a quite night
for my pain fall asleep in the space's cradle
I may yawn before an opera of stars
the music is always the same celestial chorus
dumb
virtual
the immense
space
fits light-years of distance
and my pain
strident
real
so small that fits me
waits the mildness of a quite night
to fall asleep
in the space's cradle

by Armando TABORDA, in "SINFONIA EM DOR MENOR", Editora Escola de Mar, 2007

never forget to stop and think
never forget to stop and drink
never forget to stop the drink
never forget to drink and think
never forget to think and stop
never forget to stop and think

Movingly read. Great character in your voice, Armando, great depth to your poem. It had an echo, for me, of D.H.Lawrence's greatest poem The Ship of Death...another cradle.

O let us talk of quiet that we know,
that we can know, the deep and lovely quiet
of a strong heart at peace!

How can we this, our own quietus make.
