'Pablo Neruda's Collection' <br /> <br /> 'pour le femme Artiste' <br /> (for the landscape eternal) <br /> {for the solidity of Thine Eyes} <br /> [for passion's sake] <br /> <br /> _________________ <br /> <br /> <br /> Such an aspect of a galaxy <br /> in the gaze of direct eyes! <br /> you surprise, engage, delight <br /> with a suppressed, yet, flashing grin <br /> of mischievous glee! <br /> my Earth, my musking fecundity, <br /> my Gaia, my earthling Love <br /> in heaving exultation.... <br /> <br /> a challenge, a greeting, a meeting of Souls, <br /> yet, an instant Negation is inherent <br /> if a sense is apprised of something <br /> to be bought or sold! <br /> Such, be it, in the Bazaar of Market life.... <br /> <br /> So, once again, as it has ever been, <br /> the Pea balanced upon the Knife-edge <br /> of Consciousness <br /> trembling above your scarlet, wet lips.... <br /> <br /> Perhaps, a picknique is a better place.... <br /> Where the Brie is warmed <br /> the Pinot Noir is becalmed <br /> the Wind is flirtatious <br /> and the field is capacious..... <br /> <br /> If this be thy last moment, <br /> why not? <br /> Less has been dreamed, less has <br /> been caught! <br /> ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++<br /><br />Thomas Hadley<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-tribute-to-pablo-neruda/
