Word change update! Thanks to page visitor Maria Alice de Pinho for prompting me to take another look at my word choice for this poem. I always welcome corrections and suggestions!—181. UM FÔLEGO INQUIETO (A RESTLESS BREATH), a poem by Sonja N. Bohm. Pictured is a young pepper plant—a Jalapeño Murcielago F2 (cross between a Jalapeño M and a Count Dracula). Original cross by, and seeds courtesy of a friend. The poem in English— With a restless breath, I release my sorrows onto each new leaf— each new sprout. They receive my doubts and paint me something beautiful. This poem was written for the Pera e Pedra (Pear and Stone) collection of bilingual poems inspired by Portugal. Special appreciation always to my teacher, poet and performer Lurdes Saramago Chappell, for checking my Portuguese grammar 🙏 amazon.es/stores/Sonja-N.-Bohm/author/B09MV4P1XF About these poems: My bilingual poems are the fruit of a journey into learning and loving the Portuguese language. They are conceived in English and crafted to be read in Portuguese. Yet the versions are not strict translations of one another. The writing process begins with the conception of the poems in English, as I develop the essence, ideas, and emotions to be expressed. Using every tool at my disposal—dictionaries, translators, what I have learned in Portuguese language class—the English and Portuguese versions are crafted together simultaneously, line by line, back and forth through trial and error, in a dance of words that intertwine like two distinct bodies searching for harmony with one another, each influencing the other's content, movement and rhythm.

I often find myself immersed in vivid, almost tangible dreams, only to watch them slip away as soon as I try to hold onto them. My mind gives me visions that feel so real… I’m still trying to understand who’s to blame: her, who presents me with things that don't exist, or me, who keeps showing up in her world of dreams?

BLUE 💙 In every unforgettable love story lies a delicate dance of longing, memory, and the bittersweet beauty of letting go… the final chapter of an infinite bond between two souls, honouring timeless moments that tell the heart’s story. Love… the highest intelligence in the universe, with a divine language of its own, meets nature to tell the secrets of the soul. Blue becomes more than a colour; it’s the heartbeat of endless love that lingers, illuminating joy and ache in equal measure. It carries healing within its ache and grace within its imperfection… a love that could not stay but remains eternal, unbroken by absence. Through the shades of Blue, this poetic journey unveils the sacred heart’s vulnerability, the courage and silent strength to love unconditionally, and the transcendent power of love to heal, forgive, endure, and inspire. From my heart to yours, thank you for reading the poetry of my soul. With love and respect, Azra 🫶🏻 BLUE 💙 Blue for a story untold, In the magic of a starry night, You and I, one last time. A whispering summer wind, A calm of a long hug that heals, A warmth of softest yet strong hands to feel, A kiss with no worthy contender, Forever to behold, A blue sapphire on the throne. Blue for the infinite ocean, Vast blue seas unite in one stream, Between shores of two hearts, Majestic and serene, Innocent but fierce, Yet restless, profoundly deep. Blue, more than a primary hue, A language of heartbeats, Scented by sweet sin, A scene of perfect crime, Where secrets play, Where lovers meet. Royal blue for a hopeless loyal, For its foolish love is true but blind, A quiet fire by the candlelight, A perfect blue storm, The allure of chains of desire, Veiled in blue silk of amazing grace, Of one unforgettable heart affair. Perfectly blue, A Yes, and a No, A Russian roulette on order for two, Blue lights flashing, No Name Lane, Irresistible honest thief, A queen of melancholy, A grand finale script, Heavenly euphoria In a sea of silent tears. Timeless moments, Not the gift of time bestowed, A precious drop of rain in a palm, For a blue dessert rose, held brief. A mystery reason cannot trace, A tender place to fall, Vivid memory that never sleeps, Where time rests… To Let Love Be! Among all rights, Beyond all wrongs, In your light I learn to love, I see the vision of love in love, Above pain and traces of doubt, A moonlight dazzles the way, When and if you miss me, Look for me in all shades of blue, I will always meet you there…💙 ✍🏻Author: Azra ZK Copyright Panthera Excelsior 99 #Blue #Love #Poetry #PoetryLovers #AzraZK #Sarajka
