Poem name : AND A MESSAGE ON THE WAY One day I shall come and bring a message One day I shall come and bring a messageI shall pour light in the veins And I shall cry out, “O you whose baskets are full of dreams! I have brought apple, the red apple of sun I shall come and shall offer a lilac to the beggar I shall present another pair of earrings to the beautiful leprous woman I shall say to the blind man, “What a sight to look in the garden!” I shall become a peddler, I shall roam in the streets, and will shout, “O dews, dews, dews!” I shall tell a passerby, “It is indeed a dark night I shall bestow him a constellation There is a little legless girl on the bride, I shall hang the Great Bear on her neck I shall remove every obscenity from the lips I shall remove every wall from the root I shall tell the thieves, “A caravan has arrived loaded with smile!” I shall tear up the cloud I shall graft eyes to the sun, hearts to love, shadows to water and branches to the wind I shall join the child’s dream with the murmur of crickets I shall fly kites I shall water flowerpots I shall go to the horses, cows, and pour the green grasses of caress before them A thirsty mare shall bring the pail of dew I shall scare flies away from an old ass in the way I shall come to plant a carnation on each wall I shall rehearse a poem under each window I shall give an oak to every crow I shall tell the snake, “How glorious is the frog!” I shall reconcile I shall familiarize I shall eat light I shall love I shall love |  |
