realize

if each day,
each hour,
you feel that you are destined for me
with implacable sweetness,
if each day a flower climbs up to your lips to seek me,
ah my love, ah my own,
in me all that fire is repeated,
in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten,
my love feeds on your love,beloved,
and as long as you live it will be in your arms
without leaving mine.

---Extract from If You forget Me by Pablo Neruda

Pablo Neruda is one of my favourite poets, but my best is César Vallejo. Try to read some about him.

A big hug

Hey mi-chan! It's been a while. How's it going?? miss you;) hope everything is going well!

i couldn't agree with you more; yes i think he's a terrific poet!
btw i read 4 of César Vallejo's works and they were very nice too. he has a very different taste from Pable Neruda.

thanks for the tip!
