In Green I Shall Rest

In my dream there will be no drought
That will decimate these superb landscapes…
With green trees, the world is a journey –
And is sad to see handicapped its branches…

I’m addicted to this blue sky watering hope
In this piece of green where everything flourish…
I am a beggar in this ill-fated life that faints
In the insolence of progress that kills the green…

I will not play a dumb in my archaic dream:
In the green I shall rest my painful fist
With sad bruises of my many lost battles
In my ignored efforts to save the earth…

No matter what: I still glimpse a green planet
In a distant dream made by sober ambitions
Of a sustainable fortune – and life fulfilled
With green and emissaries of the wisdom…
