It depends, doesn’t it?
.
There are those who look out at the sea and perceive only the waves, and so they meet up with water
– doesn’t it all depend on our gaze?
.
He who looks at the countryside yet cannot distinguish the horizon perhaps is he who might go into the woods only searching for firewood.
.
But there are others of us – she who is
in flux – who will uncover the real magic.
.
She looks at the naked tree in winter
and she smiles, in faith,
awaiting the fruit such trees will bear – in time.
.
And there are those of us who,

even before our eyes open each morning to see the world around us

– well, we’ve already dreamed of such worlds!

. . .

Depende…
.
Hay quien mira el mar y solo ve las olas,
solo encuentra el agua…

Todo depende de la mirada.

Quien mira el campo y no distingue el horizonte,
quien entra al bosque y solo va por leña.

Otros en cambio, de lo real descubren la magia.

Miran un árbol desnudo en el invierno
y sonríen confiados esperando que de sus frutos
cuando sea el tiempo.

Y están aquellos que antes de abrir los ojos
y ver el paisaje,
ya lo han soñado.
