I wish all a prosperous, colorful season & enjoy my poem, now in English, as promised:
AUTUMN
Your sun rays touch me
and feelings
Of sensuality stir in
me. My awakening
Isi primordial. I’m the
enchanted, ready
to give, to bloom, to
surrender.
AUTUMN
I’m thirteen, you are
the boy on the next
block whose name I
never knew. The one
who brought me a flower
every morning.
I’m sixteen you are the
one who serenaded
me under the weeping
willow on the meadow
at the edge of the
stream. I’m nineteen, you,
are the husband I
always wanted. I’m twenty
a young mother, I watch
the world burst
with love in my baby’s
eyes. Life goes on.
And now in this new lovely
autumn, I say,
Your rays are generous.
And my awakening
Is primordial. I’m the
enchanted, ready
to give, to bloom, to
surrender. Because
you have arrived in great splendor!
AUTUMN.
