An Evening Sky
A slash of Blue! A sweep of Gray!
Some scarlet patches - on the way -
Compose an evening sky…
Emily Dickinson
So sweet was
the scent of those evenings
when
our steps invented long distance routes
in the summer gardens
when
slowly the lights were lit
and competing with the moons and the stars
formed parabolas of light
on the opaque stones of the paths.
Then, life
just begun
seemed to reveal
- just for us -
a sky of unreal colours.
Countless images
( fragments of old memories )
that
today
re-create and break
in the weary kaleidoscope
of the mind.
(Il Meleto di Guido Gozzano Award, 2012)
