Hands
Tonight,
my hands,
with an ancient prayer,
assembled together,
lead me
to landscapes...
Where
there are no borders,
or I can’t see them.
Where winds,
passionately,
celebrate an explosion
of scents,
of luxurious flowers,
that I’ve never seen.
Where water
erases
oblivion.
Where a flame
never burns out.
Where colours
hug the sky.
Where a song
commences
and never
disappears,
keeping
this night
and your
hands.
