Love Poems
Love Poems | Pablo Neruda
Charged with sensuality and passion, Pablo Neruda's love poems are the most celebrated of the Nobel Prize winner's oeuvre, captivating readers with earthbound images and reveling in a fiery re-imagining of the world. Mostly written on the island paradise of Capri (the idyllic setting of the Oscar-winning movie Il Postino), Love Poems embraces the seascapes surrounding the poet and his love Matilde Urrutia, their waves and shores saturated with a new, yearning eroticism. And when you appear all the rivers sound in my body, bells shake the sky, and a hymn fills the world. 1973 by Neruda & Walsh

#spanishbook #8- 2024 will be my 4th consecutive year of immersing myself on the way to fluency, and I've built up a nice little collection of libros en español. One of my reading goals for the new year is to read more of them!
"Ríete de este torpe
muchacho que te quiere,
pero cuando yo abro
los ojos y los cierro,
cuando mis pasos van,
cuando vuelven mis pasos,
niégame el pan, el aire,
la luz, la primavera,
pero tu risa nunca
porque me moriría"

ElizaMarie I absolutely love this author. I have a couple of his books, where it has Spanish one side and English on the other side. It really helps. :) Love your goal for 2024! 4mo
CaliforniaCay @ElizaMarie That's how this one is! Yeah having the English and Spanish side by side is super helpful. I don't need to look up every word I'm not familiar with and it goes my so much faster 😏 4mo

#FallTreasures - Pocket Book: His is a poetry of yearning and deep longing not for love or love‘s sake, but for the Lover. For the passion ignited as one soul burns for another. The one that is breath and sunlight, water and air, food and sustenance. His words map the journey of the heart in Eros. It is sensual and pure and beautiful!👇🏽

Nute He is a poet that I would invite to the Come Back Table for a night of conversing over food and drink if there was such a possibility.
And if he should happen to read his poetry to me… *blush***swoon*

What a beautiful book of love poems by Pablo Neruda. My favorites include “Your Feet”, “Your Laughter”, and “Madrigal Written In Winter”. I‘ve read these poems multiple times and every time, I discover a new feeling, a new thought. 💗

Also, I‘m catching up on #LitsyLove mail this Sunday morning as well. 😊

A tiny, bilingual edition that is mostly quite accessible in comparison to some of Neruda's other works.
I love them all, but maybe that's my inner hopeless-romantic talking. ❤❤
My fave poems in here would be: tus manos, tu risa, la noche en la Isla, and ausencia.
My fave poem of Neruda's may actually be Tu Risa. 😍😍😍😋

My love,
We have found each other
Thirsty and we have
Drunk all the water and the blood,
We found each other
Hungry
And we bit each other
Like the fire bites,
Leaving ourselves wounded.

But wait for me,
Keep for me your sweetness.
I will give you too
A rose.

All night I have slept with you
Next to the sea, on the island.
Wild and sweet you were between pleasure and sleep,
Between fire and water.

Perhaps very late
Our dreams united
At the top or at the bottom,
Above like branches that are moved by the same wind,
Below like the red roots that touch.

Laugh at the night,
At the day, at the moon,
Laugh at the twisted streets
of the island,
Laugh at this clumsy
Boy who loves you
...
Deny me bread, air,
Light, spring,
But never your laughter
For I would die.

And when you placed
Your hands on my chest,
I recognized those wings
Of the golden dove,
I recognized that clay
And that colour of wheat.

Through the years of my life
I walked searching for them.

💜💜💜
If someone wrote me poetry like this, I would actually swoon. #poemaday

with garlands wet by the rain,
looking at ash-gray horses and yellow dogs.
I can love you only with waves at my back,
amid vague sulphur blows and brooding waters...]

What a wonderful book of poetry. The language was lyrical & poignant & captured perfectly the fervent passion Pablo Neruda held for Matilde Urrutia. I haven't enjoyed a poetry collection this much since Milk and Honey. I found myself so moved, particularly while reading the first number of poems. I endeavoured to savour every word & passage & really drink in the emotion. Well-worth reading. I'd love to hear this read in its original Spanish! 4/5⭐️
