a poem of silence


poem of silence

so calm , so calm the sea,
when i will die.
i will be free, so free,
with the winds to fly.

to die was but to learn
undoing the knots,
to throw away shoes,
forgetting lines and dots,

to dance barefoot without feet
among the laughter of trees,
jumping up, jumping down,
i forgot days, nights, blues.

the ashes, the bark, the spark
gently rocking in my boat,
i only gave a little push,
now watch it float and float.

soon it will sink through
this shimmering mirror,
all will be solved,
no grain in the sieve.

a curious bird
will flap its wings
and turn to see,
nothing but ocean.

when we will die,
I will have no name,
go from where i came,
the breath, the soil, the silence

so calm the sea, so calm,
when i will die,
at night in sleep
maybe a faint humming

so very calm.
still.
silence.
