Primeira vez lendo Adélia Prado e achei interessante. A religiosidade é uma marca de sua obra e muitos poemas exploram esse lugar. Os meus poemas preferidos foram aqueles em que o cotidiano era o personagem principal. Segundo Adélia, "eu só tenho o cotidiano e meu sentimento dele". E é isso, eu amo ler textos de escritores que entendem a importância do cotidiano para a criação literária.

A poesia como chamado. As imagens de Adélia pintam em amarelo minha fé, já puída e desgastada. Agora a fé sobe à poesia, desatada do vazio da cruz.

A poesia é minha nova religião e Adélia é uma de suas Virgens.

I haven't got words to describe how much I love Adelia! If my poems could reach 80% of what her poetry is, I would be the happiest writer living! Her worst poem is a masterpiece.
