From His Home Among the Trees

 From his home among the trees,

he writes what he may please,

free as the evening breeze:

old poet at his ease.

He Carries the Flame

 He carries the flame

of the past,

the present,

and the uncertain future.

His Mind Ranges Over the Galaxies

 His mind ranges over the galaxies

as he listens, lonely,

for a response.


Son esprit parcourt les galaxies

comme il écoute, seul,

pour une réponse.


Su mente recorre las galaxias

mientras escucha, solo,

para una respuesta.


Sua mente percorre as galáxias

enquanto ele escuta, sozinho,

para uma resposta.

Yerushalayim of the Mind

Yerushalayim

Always hid among us,

Kindly awaiting the

Overthrow of war,

Veritable lotus of a thousand petals.
