Pablo Neruda (12 July 1904 – 23 September 1973 / Parral / Chile)

My favorite line - Cemetery of kisses, there is still fire in your tombs Such power in the imagery he employs. He holds nothing back with regards to the deepest emotions.

The broken voice and sense can be felt....
Awesome work of words....

I don't believe poems can be translated...
As...I do repeat
Every language has a soul...
Noone can enter every soul...!

Stanza 7 Should read: Pale blind DIVER
Stanza 24 Should read: You still BROKE IN currents

The poet could otherwise depict his past, and muse over the gratification of carnal pleasure.There is no cause to mourn, no reason to brood over the battle of the bodies.Again there is no life -enhancing note in this poem.What has been perpetuating since the advent of human-animals on this earth finds repetition here.
Again a poet must avoid erotic language, to paint the open -secret between the he-man and the she-man.
There is no question on the irresistible sex-pleasure.I find no face of a poet in the poem.
