Fernando Delgadillo
Miscellaneous
From Evening to Afternoon
From evening to evening
the air enters swaying quietly
between its transparent wings
an old and enchanted melody
which speaks of if you saw,
If you saw,
there where the grass grows
rich, fresh, new and young
like a smile
like an early awakening
that shakes
and takes you
from time
to a new window.
There, there
where they distill water
backwater and spring
to lull the dream
of sleeping water
it is the essence and nuance
of warm season
it is nature
that sings to the sun.
Where the earth is dressed
with leaves and charm
and then conjugated in water,
sun, seed in a tree,
where industrious harmony
it works and only engenders life
where a chaste sky is born
for each day.
Come brother,
it's getting time
and not every afternoon
plays with the thought
like the wind plays
when it ulúa sings
between the windows,
comes from afternoon to evening.
