Where have you gone ?

Where have you gone?
Whispers say "There by the trees near the brook."
I look but you are not there;
Only a shaded memory carved inside the bark
of the great great oak.
Where have you gone?
A whisper says "There near the light on the corner by the store."
I go,only to hear a memory of an old,old song-
that use to fill the air and warm our souls.
Where have you gone?
A whisper says "Just smell the morning air."
Your perfume dances in my memories of long agos and past affairs.
Where have you gone?
A whispers says" Look deep inside the box on the shelf by the book"
I put my hand inside and only find
remnants of a day or two and a long lost look.
Where have you gone ?
I scour every corner of my heart sadly to discover
only seconds of your life and moments of your love.
Where have you gone ?
You seem so faraway and still so close to my saddened heart.

A picture,a song,a memory can only go so far
to make me smile of days gone by
when you ran and walked along my side
making whispers wonders and yesterday ponders
for long ago and far aways of days to come and days to go
and now all that's left is this melancholy soliloquy
of seconds lost and seconds found.
Where have you gone?

(to my nephew Lee on his graduation 5/2011
I am very proud of you. Always thinking of you.)

Hoy Pienso de Ti

Es la madrugada, lo se por que siento el silencio .
No hay mucho sentido que yo me levante y sacude al Sol,
El  a solas se levantar y  abrirá las ventanas.

Mi imaginación  se mueve despacio. Comienza con
el recuerdo pequeño  de un momento fugaz  y
rápidamente me lleva al demonio del  rencor.

Tantos días que yo caminado con mis
ojos de siego y mi corazón de muerto.
Tantos días que yo buscado la razón. 
Tantos días Tantos días.

Es la madrugada lo se por que conozco este color.
No es negro ni azul   ni gris.  
Es el color que  se queda  cuando   muere la luna-
se apagan las estrellas y solo alumbra la soledad.

Es el color de la inquietud 
y de la esperanza y de las aventuras sin comenzar .   
Es el color de mi alma , Es el color de mi corazón.
Es el color Es el color.

Es la madrugado lo se por que no estas.
Es la madrugado por que manana  no vendrás.
Es la madrugada  del comienzo y del fin.

Es la  madrugada es la madrugada
