Aldo Kraas Poems

Today I fight
With all the kings
Of the
Ancient Rome
...

I had cooked
The feijoada this morning
Because I wanted to share
My feijoada
...

I hope that my happiness
Will last forever
But I have a strong feeling
That my happiness won't last very long
...

Louisiana is on my mind
Each day
At sunrise, sunset, and in the evening
Louisiana is on my mind
...

I am not waving
Good bye to you
Because I hate to say good bye
Please understand that
...

We will not
Die of loneliness
We will not
Die of sadness
...

I don't know anybody else
That loves me
Better than God
I don't know anybody else
...
