Octavio Paz Poems
- Piedra De Sol
La treizième revient...c'est encor la première;
et c'est toujours la seule-ou c'est le seul moment;
car es-tu reine, ô toi, la première ou dernière?
es-tu roi, toi le seul ou le dernier amant? ... - No More Clichés
Beautiful face
That like a daisy opens its petals to the sun
So do you
Open your face to me as I turn the page.... - Across
I turn the page of the day,
writing what I'm told
by the motion of your eyelashes.
... - Counterparts
In my body you search the mountain
for the sun buried in its forest.
In your body I search for the boat
adrift in the middle of the night.... - Summit And Gravity
There's a motionless tree
And another one coming forward
A river of trees
Hits my chest...
