The Magnolia
Luiza Neto Jorge
(May 10, 1939 – 1989)
The exaltation of the minimum,
and the magnificent lightning
of the master event
give me back the shape
my radiance.
A tiny cradle picks me up
where the word is eliminated
in matter- in metaphor-
necessary, and take each one
where it echoes and slips.
The magnolia,
the sound that develops in it
when pronounced,
it's an exalted aroma
lost in the storm,
a magnificent minimum
defoliating lightning
about me.
In Your Time Your Time
Dialogue between Poems
Magnolia and time
Nonô
(August 15, 1975)
All in good time,
In the spring blooming flowers
Nature shines
The animals start to give birth.
The lovely magnolia.
Beautiful and fragrant
Born in the trees
White and pink.
Symbol of dignity and purity,
And strength, loyalty and love
Out of the ordinary petals
In all its splendor.
Creative
and vulnerable,
Aware of your inner self
Hopeful, believer,
Externalizing vigor
Without fearing tomorrow
The future has another flavor
When in time you trust
