The Gorriones of Lima It is fall all around me- The Gorriones are swimming in the air Underneath the Lima sky As if-, if fish could fly? Summer has gone its way It is fall again I say! The birds-, they just walk on by Looking, as if, if on parade- And The world keeps spinning; They just do not see it Until the hour comes? When the sun goes down!? When, Things get a little dim; Yet the Gorriones keep on swimming Gracefully, swimming, in the wind- Under the Lima sky? .

Two Poems: San Jeronimo Brook & [in English and Spanish] Fair Andes! Thy arms reach highOf iron-woven solid stone Thu art a condor to the skyOf glory hidden in thy heartSo many paths, a maze of art?In thy old, Mantaro ValleyWhere adobes, breathe and tremble Beyond your rustic shadowsThere lays the prettiest of brooksIs my heart, within its stream!My image deeply carved, rippledIn its undiluted shallow watersWaiting, just waiting for me?As it opens up, opens up my soulMy rippled soul-searching-eyes!..

Thereof, toss yourself to thy knees, for the roar of rebellious men will bleed: black blood, through the vines of Jeremiah.
