80. A dream of paradise
My love is like a dream of love
but all too true to dream.
She dreams of beauty and of love
but is too pure to voice that dream.
My love is like a perfect understatement
and without exaggerations:
not a word escapes her
that lets out the truth
about the width of this reality
that is a dream but carefully
and gradually come true,
like a momentous opening of a theatre curtain
that with the greatest care reveals but faintly
more and more of an unheard of heaven
that excels all paradaisic dreams
that ever could be dreamed.
