From Paradise

 

 

From Paradise

I do write this

from above

in the trees

where the green

and the light

protect

between its branches

the legendary treasure

of El Dorado

I do write this

under the river

where gravity and current

flow free

to Lake Parima

where the ghost of

Sir Walter Raleigh

bathes in gold between

the reeds and the herons

I do write this

above and between the clouds

where the wind is anonymous

Savoring the colors

that drip from the rainbow

to sweeten the marimbas

and the castanets

that become a river

when it rains in the mountains

I do write this to the sky

and to the earthly paradise

that come together

far away

on the horizon
