***
Poetry begot the meeting,
The meeting begot sound,
Sound begot trust,
Trust begot tandem,
Tandem begot love.
Love begot letters,
Letters begot hope,
Hope begot meaning,
Meaning begot form.
Form begot depth,
Depth begot quite,
Quite begot ‘be’,
Quite begot ‘lief’ –
Quite begot belief!
Belief begot change,
Change begot mystery,
Mystery begot rays,
Rays begot trees,
Trees begot paper,
Paper begot alphas,
Alphas begot betas,
Betas begot writers,
Writers begot poems,
Poems begot us.
Painting “Ma doveri” by Sara Maino, 18-7-2021
