Cornice

 

                                             Non ancora

                                             è giunto

                                             l'attimo

                                             che squarcia

                                             le tenebre,

                                             ma non ti dà

                                             il tempo di

                                             riannodare

                                             le fila.

                                                

                                             Fa capolino

                                             fra le pieghe

                                             increspate

                                             della vita,

                                             una cornice                                           

                                             da fissare

                                             al cuore.

 

                                             A te, che sbirci

                                             noncurante,

                                             la folata di vento

                                             rammenterà

                                             l'acqua limpida

                                             della sorgente

                                             scivolata via

                                             tra le dita.

                                                             Giuseppe Romano
