Hélène Cardona Instagram – Happy Father’s Day to my dad, José Manuel Cardona, the poet from Ibiza.
“We arrived and the miracle happened.
It was the sea and the wind in the bells.
We came from far, from years
Thirsty as dust, from humble
fishermen’s nets on barren shore.”
#JoséManuelCardona
Translated by Hélène Cardona, From Birnam Wood @SalmonPoetry
“Llegamos y el milagro se produjo.
Ha sido el mar y el viento en las campanas.
Veníamos de lejos, de los años
Sedientos como polvo, de las redes
De humildes pescadores en mar yerma.”
De “El Bosque de Birnam” (Consell Insular d’Eivissa, Ibiza, Spain)
(Birnam Wood / El Bosque de Birnam, Salmon Poetry)
