Romance of my friend Angel Esteban Valencia City

November 7, 2011

/ / Poetry

I arrived from Madrid
to enjoy a Congress,
in the city of Valencia,
convened by CEAS.

Just thinking about being
quiet and discreet,
listening carefully
to my learned colleagues.

It was the City of Arts
my excuse and Sciences
for my humble paper
carefully prepared,
because what I wanted
was to come to Congress
chat with many friends
and enjoy with new dreams.

When I came to the Levant,
I brought good wishes
to walk leisurely
Museums of Valencia,
its walls and towers,
its beautiful monuments,
the mysterious Albufera
and their deepest secrets.

I was short in my plans,
it clouded my brain
a blaze of sensations
in my heart and old,
among the reeds and mud,
burned like firecrackers.
