Taken in his peace
The clouds paint the sky,
in their veil
they take you with them,
they teach you to fly,
leaving
and leaving a trail behind.
Looking at the sun, I think
how immense it is,
its rays give me heat
under those old beech trees
from several years ago.
In bodies of water,
I find wise advice again
and in the whispers of birds,
beautiful in their unique music,
I hear the melody of the wind
hoping that one day
give me even more harmony.
We are children of the blessed God,
we love his creation
when in a single meadow
we admire its lilies
stretched miles away
in their most intense amazement.
I think we are not alone
in this universe.
He took us in his love,
we feel his hand
little by little,
like the breeze
than with dexterity
caresses our soul.

I world full of love
Life is a breath
what’s going
away like the wind.
In a moment he throws his slap at you
and then it leaves its scratch on you.
Its wake in storms, hits you,
he tears your clothes and his remains
they go away diminishing,
but if he can, bind up your wounds
also saving those of many lives.
I’ll be funny if I throw myself into this life
and let this anger of mine pass?
I’m just a little Smurf
in front of it.
I am but a grain of sand
taking a dive into the sea
and then drown?
You who think you love more and more,
you who don’t give in and don’t throw yourself down,
you who put your hands up,
yes, up there
in the plans of the Divine,
wait for the morning to come
and let the evil end,
you look forward to a better world.
Today, the world pays no attention to your love,
he is an alien who throws his poison into hatred,
but man, thanks be to God,
he will soon enjoy it to the fullest
of a world full of love with its most particular humanitarian rights
which will be centuries-old…
They will last for centuries
of the centuries.

Passions and loves
The sun shines
lightly
among the sails of ships,
while on earth
by sweetness
there is no more war
and honey drips from the honeycombs.
There are no more beams,
today adopted by good owners.
No more prisons in the hearts,
but accompanied passions
and more and more loved
from all loves
that they will never forget
and that they will continue
to fill and rejoice
the colorful life
of each of us.
