Nat is in the country of his youth. <br /> <br />(In the open country, among woods and flowery meadows.) <br /> <br />Nat: <br />I'm here alone, <br />People love pure world of childhood. <br />My sweetheart isn't here: <br />Once she was here. <br />My friends, that read, see and hear: <br />I'll tell you about a child <br />With his women and a father, <br />it's normal, in the background. <br />He wanted to find again <br />His sweetheart Overseas. <br /> <br />Marcia: <br />I'm here, too. <br />Our senses will be satisfied <br />In this our new meeting. <br />I'm the same woman, <br />You should be the same man. <br /> <br />(She shows off her body.) <br /> <br />Nat: <br />A time this was my breast, <br />I loved it, <br />I didn't want to leave it. <br />I feel that longing, <br />Languishing, subtle thrill. <br /> <br />(The woman disappears.) <br /> <br />I was an enchanted child: <br />Now I'll dig the ground. <br />It is winter in my vines, <br />In spring vine-shoots will grow. <br />This is future, <br />It isn't past. <br /> <br />To be continued<br /><br />Paolo Giuseppe Mazzarello<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/nathaniel-the-blackberries-place/
