Totally beautiful in it's entirety. It encapsulates the essence of the title very well.
As always brilliant with expression and writing craftsmanship, outstanding piece 10++
An exceptional piece of poetry from the hand of a true poet, it weaves itself with fragility and rich sensuality. Pure passion and delight.
The great man shines. And oh so, so brightly. What more is there to say except thank you Pablo. And sleep well good sir. Sleep well.
My somber heart seeks you always I love your happy body, your rich, soft voice. Dusky butterfly, sweet and sure Like the wheatfiled, the sun, the poppy, and the water. a very fine poem of Neruda
My somber heart seeks you always I love your happy body, your rich, soft voice. Dusky butterfly, sweet and sure Like the wheatfiled, the sun, the poppy, and the water......true poetic expression, too natural, always enjoyable poem.....
You are the delirious youth of bee, The drunkedness of the wave, the power of the wheat. Wonderful expressions. of Pablo
Excellent poem with lovely images. Nothing draws me to you.....I wish I could understand Pablo’s thought behind it. Or is it a typo.
Neruda could be quoted anytime anywhere as from this I also quote to know my liking..... You are the delirious youth of bee, The drunkedness of the wave, the power of the wheat....................... Nice to have the chance of reading.
You are the delirious youth of bee, The drunkedness of the wave, the power of the wheat./// wow great poetic experssion
A marvelously penned profound poem rich in rhyme and rhythm too.
What can I write, words fail me when I read.. You are the delirious youth of bee, The drunkedness of the wave, the power of the wheat. So powerful metaphors
Wow! Neruda, the God love, God of all Gods! Brown and agile child, the sun which forms the fruit And ripens the grain and twists the seaweed Has made your happy body and your luminous eyes And given your mouth the smile of water. The smile of water! ! !
A perfect poem to quote for the blessing at my niece's wedding. I still remember it from Jackson Brown's record long ago...
A poem of natural nurturing the child. Eminently excellent
Brown and agile child, nothing draws me to you, this line is contradictory to the poem pablo. otherwise, beautiful.
Deep, insightful and thought provoking....
