Analysis of A most delightful journey

Joseph Berolo 1934 (Bogotá)



A most delightful journey

A most delightful journey

A song to
 You, my nest to roost in ways I cannot reckon.  
A song to let the pen dispense  
sweet strokes and lines and rhythms f
or you to feel
like incense caressing the corners of your land.
To let it be a journey of life
through the fertile valley
 of your skin divine.
To let it devour the geography
 of your thoughts of mine akin.
 A poem to be for all a sacred temple,
 an angel painted on its dome,
a place to call the world to sermon,
and yet, for me, alone to read.
 For in verse, I would become, b
y a muse so gently tamed,
 my most glorious tale,
 for all who love, to hear and say.
