Description

With this colloquial and simple language, although not without poetic devices in which the soul is torn by my loss, and the longing for my land, I want to deliver you, my readers, to whom, of course, this booklet is also dedicated, the best of my poetic feelings. Therefore, withouth secrecy or disguise, I share with you the desire that it will not be hard to get the message that reaches you through the wings of a swallow, traveling in pursuit of its aspirations. Poetry has wings to travel the world./ It knows different languages, / denounces evil, / speaks of love./ It also walks through the streets/ and approaches sensitive people/ in its continuous struggle./ Sometimes the mud covers it/ but it also emerges/ from the warm breeze of the forest /that spreads it everywhere. The author" Poetry is the expression of the soul, open seas that do not know shores, it takes flight, and scapes through storms or, thoughtful, falls next to an open window. That is just what happens in the pages of this book of poems; Pure feeling, uprooting and nostalgia that dances between the verses to touch the sensitiive fibers of any exiled. My small green house of a girl's dreams/ plays in the backyard/ under the mango tree/ which on each harvest/ used to spill fruits for our hunger. Emerald island, today I leave /with a skin pierced wound./ My heart cries /to leave my old ones/ sick and aged. Maria gives us a handful of poems that will leave traces because they were the disguised truth. There is no possible deceit when the heart speaks and is exposed to cold absence".Pedro Pablo Perez Santiesteban, poet and write
