Paseo nocturno / Vicente Gerbasi

Nocturnal Stroll

The poet at night
strolls through his childhood
under fireworks.
The city palm trees
light up in colors.
There’s a sadness that shines
in the fountain.




{Vicente Gerbasi, El solitario viento de las hojas, Caracas: Tierra de Gracia Editores, 1989}
