A Divine Falling of Leaves
(For Spanish translation click here)
Moon! Crown of an enormous head,
dropping leaves into yellows shadows!
Red crown of a Jesus who thinks
tragically, soft of emeralds!
Moon! Reckless heart celestial,
why do you row this way, inside the cup
full of blue wine, toward the west
whose stern is defeated and painful?
Moon! It’s no use flying away,
so you go up in flames of scattered opals;
maybe you are my gypsy heart
who wanders in the blue, crying verses! . . .
