A Shape Of Light

I enter from its stone arch

like a wave enters eternity.

I cross dreams as if I were crossing rooms

I see in myself the mystery of intimate time:

a shape of light

The Most West Corner Of Europe ~ In Portugal

 Aqui, onde a terra se acaba e o mar começa...

Here, where the land ends and the sea begins...

       / Luís de Camões, Os Lusíadas /

The Cabo da Roca lighthouse, overlooking the promontory towards the Atlantic Ocean.

 Belita and I arrived at the most west point of Europe around sunset time, 
it was breathtakingly beautiful...  

 Monument declaring Cabo da Roca as the westernmost extent of continental Europe.

A Dream In Black & White

all I've ever done is dream

I never tried to be anything other than a dreamer

even in a dream of black and white - is full of poetry

The Cellists

Music is, by its very nature, essentially powerless to express anything at all;

music expresses itself.

A Shadow's Dream

sunset - unbearable beauty

the memory of another sleep

a kiss carved into this shadow's dream

Sweet Avila III ~ A Kiss

When that season passed,

lovers stepped out of us.

The image of love reveals itself; 

in a profoundly present absence.

A Castle's Memory

It's today, all of yesterday was falling;

between brilliance of light and my sleepy eyes,

tomorrow will come with another steps,

no one stops the castle's remembrance.

The Light Shines Through History

The Monastery of Batalha was built in 1385, is One of the UNESCO  world heritage Site, a Dominican convent in the civil parish of Batalha, central region of Portugal. 

It is one of the best and original examples of Late Gothic architecture in the world.

Encountering this church was a very precious experience I had with Portugal.
Thanks again, Belita  :)

Walking Plaza Mayor

I walk slowly

like one who comes from so far away 

not intend to arrive

                

Before Sunrise

the sky

has already opened

his morning eyes

Your footsteps murmuring

Moonflowers on the wall

All That I Dream

When God acts and history is made

The rest is flesh whose dust

The earth awaits
