                 Theme of Fire and Sea




Only fire and the sea can watch each other
without end.  Not even the sky with its clouds.
Only your face, only the sea and fire.
Flames, waves, and your eyes.

You will be of fire and sea, eyes dark.
You will be of wave and flame, hair black.
You will know the outcome of the bonfire.
You will know the secret of the foam.

Crowned with blue like the wave.
Sharp and astral like the flame.
Only your interminable face.
Like fire and the sea.  Like death.

Eduardo Carranza
