SOMETIMES, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: When I take your hand
Last Line: A ship leaving for strange and distant countries
Subject(s): Dreams; Mediterranean Sea; Nightmares


When I take your hand
It is like a door, opening . . .

A garden . . .
A road leading out through a Mediterranean landscape . . .

Finally: a smell of salt,
the port,
A ship leaving for strange and distant countries . . .
