At the beginning the light and the first hour
when the lips still test the things of the world in clay
Green blood and golden bulbs in the earth
Panorama in her sleep spread and the sea
ether gauzes the whitened

Description

At the beginning the light and the first hour
when the lips still test the things of the world in clay
Green blood and golden bulbs in the earth
Panorama in her sleep spread and the sea
ether gauzes the whitened
beneath the carob trees and the tall upright palms
There alone I beheld
the world
weeping loudly
My soul sought a Banner-bearer and a Herald
Then I remember seeing
the three Black Women
lifting their hands towards the East
Gold-lined their backs and the cloud they left
slowly fading to the right

    A remarkable poetry collection, easy to read, that puts you in the process of expanding your intellectual horizons, acquiring critical thinking, and reflecting. It serves as a fruitful means of developing historical knowledge.
