Gipsy Ballad
for catalina ferrera
Gipsy ballad
Savage night
Bossa Nova
Mocking bird
Broken lyre
Sea of tears
Melancholia
Leaf of myrrh
My love, my love
You are the apostrophe
In my song
The fields are aflare with Sunflowers
The skies with the chatter of weaverbirds
My yearning runs wild like
A river burst its banks
My Love
My command
Fugitive word
Lonely Dawn
Willowy skies
The whistle of pines
Hour of departure
Blade of grass
Mine, mine
You are the ellipse in my verse
You are the silence in my tears
