      To Anna-Maria C.

      . . . you never say a word, sometimes the sound that you

      make, is like animals crying.

      LÉO FERRÉ

      What if we were to take off together,

      Toward a peace so tender and complete

      And reappear from our ashes,

      So beautiful, yet it makes me shiver!
