| Postcards, from Italy... |
Sicily
holds a very special place
in my heart.
It was there that I spent several summers
when me and my brother were still in the first decade
of our lives
and there we learnt the majesty
of crystalline waters
the vigour of a midday sun
the fullness of landscapes
the wildness of a dry vegetation
blinded by
colors, light, sunsets and scents.
Ever since I thrilled
each time that my compass needle
pointed the island as my destination
and still now
I know there's still so much to discover
as the inland, for example
which is an ever changing lanscape
throughout seasons,
mutating from a green sea
rippled by pines
fruit trees
and vineyards
to a golden
limitless field
interrupted by the sharp blue
of the sky
