Animae Matris

Stanley Okumura 2005 (Rio de Janeiro)

Ode


Os dias passam, lentos vão findar
O sol se ergue, luz a derramar
Curando-me do sono ao despertar
Como a vida segue, a lua vai brilhar

Ela vive, ama com intensidade
Cuida da filha, canta com verdade
Embora o tempo a leve na idade
Brilha na terra, estrela em claridade

No lar, onde não há dor nem crítica
Ao lado dela, a noite é poética
Mesmo distante, sua aura é mística
Seu amor brilha, manhã magnífica

Cada dia é dela, sempre a celebrar
Breve no corpo, eterna a pairar
Fala que encanta, ao coração tocar
Seus conselhos paz vêm semear

Amor que por dois sempre valeu
No eterno laço que o tempo teceu
Amor sem fronteiras, como o meu
Quem dera ao mundo, um amor como o seu

About this poem

Um poema sobre o amor incondicional materno, sobre o que ele significa nos dias de hoje, atravessando as paredes do tempo, transcendendo a barreiras físicas do corpo humano.
