Gianfranco Aurilio Poems

I always hoped
to have you by my side
during the sunset of life,
when the sun
...

Let me take you far away.
I will colour your body with the moon
and a crown of stars
will wet your lips,
...

If I saw you just once a week
I would love you for the rest of my life,
if I saw you twice a week
I would love you for half of my life,
...

Dear Father Christmas,
bring me the presents
I have always wanted.
Bring me affection
...

There is a little pearl box
in my heart
and sometimes I open it
to regale myself with joys.
...

Unforgettable
you are
as every moment
spent together,
...

They are like butterflies
the dreams of life,
they fly around you
and you can run after them
...

At sunrise
the girls
singing go
through the rows
...

Only now do humans understand
because they can touch it
with their hands.
Look above yourself.
...

I traveled the world
and wore my eyes out
looking for you,
asking the sun
...
