Poema [English translation]

A poem is night full of bitterness

A poem is the light that shines up there in the sky

A poem is to long for someone

That you wish for and who doesn't come

A poem is the song of a little bird

That lives by perusing, it lost its nest

It is the hope of a discovery

A poem is the loneliness of the dawn

A sad drunkard on the sidewalk,

Wanting to woo the Moon
