You can cut all the flowers but you cannot keep Spring from... - Pablo Neruda

"I want to see thirstIn the syllables,Tough fireIn the sound;Feel through the darkFor the scream."

"Poetry is an act of peace. Peace goes into the making of a poet as flour goes into the making of bread."

"I want to see thirstIn the syllables,Tough fireIn the sound;Feel through the darkFor the scream."

"I don't want to go on being a root in the dark,vacillating, stretched out, shivering with sleep,downward, in the soaked guts of the earth,absorbing and thinking, eating each day."

"Our love was bornoutside the walls,in the wind,in the night,in the earth,and that's why the clay and the flower,the mud and the rootsknow your name."
