Summit And Gravity Poem by Octavio Paz

Summit And Gravity

Rating: 3.1


There's a motionless tree
And another one coming forward
A river of trees
Hits my chest
The green surge
Is good fortune
You are dressed in red
You are
The seal of the scorched year
The carnal firebrand
The star fruit
In you like sun
The hour rests
Above an abyss of clarities
The height is clouded by birds
Their beaks construct the night
Their wings carry the day
Planted in the crest of light
Between firmness and vertigo
You are
Transparent balance

the solar system summit to gravity apex to roots sun to ocean light to water evaporation circling, recycling the life to balance transparently!
