Flor de Azalea
Jorge Negrete
Azalea Flower
Like foam that inertly carries
the rushing river,
azalea flower,
life in its avalanche
swept you away.
But in saving you
you could find protection and shelter,
where to heal your wounded heart
from the pain.
Your smile reflects the passing
of the dark hours,
your gaze the most bitter
despair.
Today forever
I want you to forget
your past sorrows
and may only serene hours
fill your heart.
I wish to be
the swallow that at dawn
comes to your window to see
through the glass
and gently wake you up
if you are still asleep
at the dawn of a new life
full of love.
