The good things that I have had I have obtained them free


The good things that I have had
I have obtained them free,
without contracts,
without signatures,
without appointments
without Visa
or MasterCard

The good things have interrupted quietly
have slid silently between the shreds of my life
and have invited to me to share them.

I am not in want of anything to be happy,
but I do need birdsong
a sky open without borders
stars twinkling
white clouds that fly

I am not in want of anything to be happy,
But I need the water
the dew
the sweet tear
the river
the rain
the sea

I am not in want of anything to be happy,
But I need the bread
the corn
the grass
the seed
the fruit

I am not in want of anything to be happy,
but I need the heat
the cold
the summer
the winter

I am not in want of anything to be happy,
but I need love
so I may follow my footpath without frontiers.

Eternal Love

I love you
Idea …
For planting the seeds of battle
In my heart.

…nevertheless, I know that I could love you,
without having seen you,
without having met you,
because I would have sensed you
and I would have known
that something was germinating in my heart
which I had not met.
