IMPROVISATION# 126
MARIO LUZI'S WORLD
(1914- 2005)

Fronds on the palm
implanted by the garden
taking over the pale colors
brushing against him
this day
in the sudden sunshine
hearing an insulated voice
in a metamorphosis of plankton
by the season and the sea
trying to be calm
in seeking a pardon
while writing verse
in a gingerly way.
