(in memo­riam Ugo Turcio)
 
 
umbra
 
 
oh man how fra­gile you tur­ned out to be
I knew well how your heart car­ried this load
lon­ging for friends­hip, so immoderate
a thirst hard to be quenched

sud­denly no more shade, no sun
no storm, lightning nor thunder
but fore­ver the calm tranquility
the quiet smile of your destiny

(Rest in peace, dear Ugo)
