AN ORPHAN IN CITY OF PARADISE
How difficult, how difficult
to come back
from the heart of paradise,
tonight we honor Aleixandre
by the seaside
at the beautiful Palmeral de las Sorpresas
the palm grove
located where once there was a silo
when the poet enjoyed.
Bringing memories
makes me fragile
and to retire along he path of beauty
just with my answers,
amplifies the opposed voices
and imprints of kiss and caresses
installed in my mind
makes my feel more orphan
as more beautiful is the night.
And tonight the zenith
is radiating more bright, Aleixandre
with his palette of verses
covers the sea, the air and the people
of the city of paradise.
Francisco Muñoz Soler, Spain.
