Another  from  'Poems the Wind Blew In'

27/1/2021

 
Books
Books
are not there to be stared at:
they're meant to be touched,
opened
and read,
which is how you get inside them.

Try it and you'll see.

They remind you
of when you travelled
to a different city
and everything seemed new to you,
surprising,
and even a little bit
mysterious.

by Karmelo C. Iribarren
​Translated by Lawrence Schimel
Los Libros

Los libros
no son para mirarlos,
son para tocarlos,
abrirlos,
y leerlos,
que es como entrar en ellos.

Prueba y verás.
​
Te recuerdan
a cuando viajas
a una ciudad diferente,
y todo te parece nuevo,
sorprendente,
y hasta un poco
misterioso.
​Poems the Wind Blew inby Karmelo C. Iribarren, illustrated by Riya Chowdhury, translated from Spanish by Lawrence Schimel, The Emma Press. Highly Commended for the CLiPPA 2020. The judges said: a book to carry around with you, proof that poetry is ideas, thoughts and emotions captured in words.
