The Sun, the Stars, the Moon, and the Sea
You ask for a sacred sign
The clouds come like citadels
Remnants of some ancient empire
Yet I remember your eyes..
Your profile like some porcelain statue
Moonlight shines through the curtains of your window
Each star luminous in this immense cathedral of the universe
I can still hear the far off sound of the waves crashing on the Pacific beach
The yellow sun glowing in the immensity of Peruvian vacations in summer
You whisper gently to remember
“The sun, the stars, the moon, and the sea”
The evenings with you seemed to flow with agelessness
Ethereal music caring us to different lands and luminous worlds
Sleep descending like a shadowy veil enshrouded in unforgettable melodies
Bathed in the far off glimmer of a flickering night-light
Some nights we would listen to the calming sound of raindrops flowing downward like a raging river
Scattered books littered your floor like some ancient secret library
These evenings I will remember with warmth and a golden aura
As they merge into an endless crisp memory through the passing of time
