POEM No. 22-A
INSPIRATION

I would like to have the inspiration
of the inveterate poets
to convert these verses
in beautiful messages
to uplift us
and motivate us to live happily.

I would like to have the imagination
of the inveterate poets
to convert the scarcity
in constant abundance
so that no child in the world
would have to go to bed without being fed.

I would like to have the intention
of the inveterate poets
to convert with my pen
my thoughts on latent realities
so that I could give everybody
motivations for dreaming and permanent happiness.

I would like to have the illusion
of the inveterate poets
to convert the infinite sorrows that beset us
in promises of joy and congratulations
that constitute an incentive
in our present and our future.

I would like to have the conviction
of the inveterate poets
to convert like a wizard, my word,
touching with my wand
each problem of the Planet
and desappear them with an "abra cadabra."

I would like to have the seduction
of the inveterate poets
to turn my thoughts and ideals
into a source of inspiration for world leaders
to convince them that it's healthier
not invest in weapons but in medicine and education.

I would like to have the persuasion
of the inveterate poets
to convert such violence in the world
into haven of peace for humanity
in order to learn to live with siblings,
joined together to support each other.

POEM No. 34 - A

DIVINE WOMEN

I traveled all around the world several times
looking for a bad woman
and I never found it.

In Europe, the inmortal France charmed me;
in all French women I found
to the heroine St. Joan of Arc
so divine as the wife of San Jose.

In United States I found
that all women are DIVINE
as Jacqueline Bouvier
of unparalleled beauty that nobody could imagine.

How can we say there are bad women?
If neither the same Divine Redeemer found them;
and when of the Magdalena defamed
Jesus himself sanctified.
