 Poesia de Susana Roberts

Hijos de las arenas

Los hijos de las arenas

ondularon signos fieles

de amor sin fin

bajo la lumbre

todo fue dicho con el beso

el incesante ruido

que secó la lágrima

en el punto más alto de las murallas

el más cálido de

los espacios y el tiempo

fueron símbolos

signos en las rocas

Acunados por el pestañeo del sol

Fue en la antecámara

guarida dulce

que vistió besos de blanco

el diamante en el papiro

Y el pelo de la luna

cubrió la gran estrella

Canción errante

Pájaro de agua

En sus almas

La sed del lago

Inventando sobre el cuerpo

luz del alba en un velero

casa de agua y fuego

grito de jazmines

aqui en mi templo

Donde quiera que vaya en caravanas

Mi amor es mi credo

Mi amor es mi fe
