secret island

at sunrise you told me
about an island who rose from the sea
in your dream.
you woke up and walked out in the morning
from your white house
and from the disappearing mist
the goddess a love
created for you
an island like a rose;
it was just then rising from the sea
and it was called Rhodos.
wrapped in a pink cloud she brought it to you
that morning when the aurore
touched your eyelids
with her fingers

and just because
I happened to be
next to you this morning
at sunrise you shared
your secret island with me

and now I have to go all the way
to Rhodos to see with my eyes
what you saw in your dream
when the day was getting ready to begin
