vita che esplode -
sotto il soffio del vento
sbocciano pietre

a burst of life -
beneath whiffs of wind
blossoming stones

Luna di Miele -
effluvi di fiori
tutta una notte

Honeymoon -
flower fragrances
all night long

Cactus Echinopsis o "luna di miele"

Fiore del Vento
negli occhi soltanto
petali e pianto

Windflower
only petals and tears
in my eyes

Pic. Tito Fornasiero, Anemoni
m'ama non m'ama
scivolano via i sogni
uno per uno

loves me or loves me not
dreams slip away
one by one

ventuno marzo -
il profumo del vento
tra i gelsomini

first day of spring -
the scent of the breeze
among the jasmines

raggio di luce
nei non ti scordar di me
occhi blu

a ray of light
in the forget-me-not blooms
sky-blue eyes

un rayo de luz
en los no-me-olvides
ojos azules

sfiorami il cuore -
voli impercettibili
di libellule

lightly touch my heart -
the imperceptible flight
of a dragonfly

azalee in fiore
di malva il blu pervaso -
sapido cielo

savouring heaven -
mauve blankets pervade the blue
azalea blooms

effetti speciali -
tutti i modi in cui m'accendi
Luci del Nord

visual effects -
all the modes you fire me up
Northern Lights

fischio del vento
nella nebbia a vagare
coi miei fantasmi

wind whistle
through this dense bank of mist
I roam with my ghosts

sifflement du vent
par cet épais brouillard j'erre
avec mes fantômes

Click on the link below and find out what appeared on the homepage of the high school where I teach last month! I feel so elated. I am particularly thankful to a colleague of mine, Stefano Lotti,  who got me to have it all published!

solo uno sguardo
a lenire il mio inverno -
viola del pensiero

only a glance
to ease my winter -
wild pansy

una mirada
para aliviar mi invierno -
un pensamiento
