The wind touches only the surface,
As the cream-colored curtains
Remain, as virgins,
Nerveless
While the silence submerges
The whispering servants.
The sunrise softens
Your sealed heavy eyelids as daylight coarsens
And makes porous
The forest,
Where birds, in a chorus,
Following heavenly orders,
Praise you, Dolores.
Their verses
Fall short of your doorsteps
And nervous,
They wander like pilgrims and orphans,
Without a home or a purpose.
