Dylan Thomas 02 Poem by Mario, Lucien, Rene Odekerken

Born of the hills that sang to the sky,
where the wind carried stories
through valleys older than time,
he was the child of Wales,
its rivers, its stones, its song.

The sea called his name,
not softly,
but with the crash of waves
against cliffs carved by centuries.
In its voice, he found his own.

Chapel bells rang in his blood,
a cadence of faith and doubt,
a rhythm of hearth and storm,
the language of an ancient soul.

Through green hills and gray rains,
he spun words like the weaver's thread,
binding grief to wonder,
life to its fleeting breath.

He raged, as all who love the land rage,
for its beauty,
its loss,
its fleeting fire.
A Welshman,
a poet,
a voice that echoes still.
