The Dove

For Ingrid Bétancourt ,
For Frida

" At that moment , Heaven was opened , and Jesus saw the Spirit of God descending like a Dove and lighting on Him . "
Matthew , 3 , 16 .

" Blackbird singing in the dead of night ... "

The Beatles - "Blackbird " *

Why don't you come
To break my window ,
You , little dove ,
And let me listen
To your sorrow ,
Your song of love ?

Still waiting for you there ,
All alone ,
You've gone so far ,
One olive branch in your beak ,
Few grains of desert sand
In Hagar's hand ...

Could you really get me free
From slavery ,
Dear gentle bird ?
I so bowed to pray my rosary
That you've heard !

Why don't you come
To break that window pane ,
You , little shy ,
And cry
With your little fainted pain ,
If I die ?
