About This Book

The volume gathers short, lyrical poems that move between intimate confession and vivid, travel-tinted scenes, often using sea, desert, and carnival imagery to evoke longing and desire. Many pieces treat love, loss, and memory with devotional or elegiac tones, transforming personal feeling into music and visual metaphor. Occasional persona poems and translated voice-poems recall distant cultures and theatrical figures, while recurring motifs—stars, fires, pools, and painted streets—anchor the collection’s contemplative mood.

WIND OF THE SEA

The Wind of the Sea is my turbulent lover,
When he gathers me close and kisses my face,
I rise to the zenith, there to discover
Peace, in surrender to his fierce embrace;
He holds me and folds me in whirlpools of light,
Then lulls me to sleep, in his arms, with the night.
