DE ANDRADE, Eugénio


On A Copy Of The Georgics


Books. Warmth,

their tender skin, serene. Loving

company. Willing always

to share the sun

of their waters. So docile,

silent, loyal.

So luminous in their

white and vegetal closed

melancholy. Loved

like no other companions

of the spirit. So musical

in the fluvial overflowing

ardour of the day.
