Quotes by Giorgio Caproni (?)

“Biglietto lasciato prima di non andar via

Se non dovessi tornare,
 sappiate che non sono mai
 partito.
 Il mio viaggiare 
È stato tutto un restare 
qua, dove non fui mai.”

“DIETRO I VETRI

A riva del tuo balcone
arioso, dai grezzi colori
degli orti già in fioritura
di menta, estate ansiosa
come una febbre sale
al tuo viso, e lo brucia
col fuoco dei suoi gerani.

Col gesto delle tue mani
solito, tu chiudi. Dietro
i vetri, nello specchiato
cielo coi suoi rondoni
più fioco,
da me segreta ormai
silenziosa t'appanni
come nella memoria.”
― Giorgio Caproni, Come un'allegoria
