Poesie - Lelio Porreca

Come frecce nere

 

Corvi con ali tese

non tagliano l’aria:

planando silenziosamente

nell’aria affondano

come frecce nere.        

                   

                                   

 

 

 

 

Like Black Arrows

 

Ravens with stretched-out wings

Don’t cut the air:

Gliding silently

Through the air they sink

Like black arrows.
