Pan's Pencil

Ninety years ago,
Pablo Neruda wrote:
"I want to do with you
what spring does with the cherry trees."*

Now, I understand what he meant.
I mean - of course I knew what it meant, before.
But now, I can feel it.
From root to top.



*"Quiero hacer contigo lo que la primavera have con los cerezos."
Veinte Poemas de Amor y una Canción Desesperada
(1924)
