Carlos de Oliveira

Childhood

Dreams
as large as cedars
that must
be brought from afar
on shoulders
to find
in the winter of memory
this crackle
of a flame:
your fragrance,
firewood
of melancholy.

Infância

Infância

Sonhos
enormes como cedros
que é preciso
trazer de longe
aos ombros
para achar
no inverno da memória
este rumor
de lume:
o teu perfume,
lenha
da melancolia.
