ACROSS THE SKY

ETHEREAL ROAD

No foreign skies above
No foreign ground below
The same universal body everywhere
The same soul with a thousand faces
Traveling clouds
Playing hide and seek
With the secrets of the land
In a tangible ethereal language
Old, natural and simple
Stained and smashed here and there
By the feet of metal giants
Polyglot eyes talking with life
Endless dialogue with beauty.

In the same glimpse
Ever-changing infinite worlds
Not all can be revealed to the eyes
The eyes are not enough
And the mystery of the distance remains
Transparency and obscurity
In the same glimpse the light and the shadow
In the same embrace to infinity
In each drop of time
Aging in my eyes
The flowing of days and nights
Sky and ground united in unbreakable mirrors.

What’s not real and pure won’t remain
Not even as an image
Not even as a shadow
Only the working hand’s salted sweat
And flashes of running sights
At the speed of sound
Before the stars shine again
And the new dawn, step by step
Starts the peaceful sky conquest
Ray by ray, the glorious painting
Arises and spreads over the ethereal home’s roof
In deep devotion, the eyes rejoice
And the mind opens all the doors and windows.

So many roads in the common path
Not a single wall in sight
Only warm velvet flying carpets
In the widest living room
And while I sit and watch the movie
I feel a well-known scent
Awakening my senses to the new morning
The newborn light unveils new pages
The limpid air awaits to be breathed
The scriptwriter is eager for new chapters
And the wonder-movie goes on
Rest for a while
In some quiet place
Touch the ground where the land joins the sea
Feel the earth smoothly
Giving shelter and wings to the tired feet

Across the sky I walked upon wandering clouds
On the ground I fly beneath and above the same clouds
No foreign skies above
No foreign ground below…
