Buses quickly run, Attention, don’t make you crush, To live here is a privilege, Houses are of good taste And prisoners between a lake and an ocean, If you have time Go to walk in the botanical garden Just a step from the curiosity of faces, Its sand is fine and subtle, Poets’ wealth, The kind which comes to drink the caïpirinha In the small common bars After working day, Here you do not forget the world, It takes you in the throat, People look at you with loyalty, You listen to the sun Coming down slowly In the breath of breasts, You are alive and your life belongs to you Why to worry about Paris, Of president Lula Or of the winter which will never come? |

Yes, Yann, reality is so beautiful, it leaves imagination far behind, if only we open all our senses to it. I particularly love, "Listen to the sun." A beautiful, sensitive poem. Owl |
