 The Poetry of David Hart

"Father"   by Dave Hart


Father dreamed of dancing trees & flowers
Singing in elation

Father saw cars on pilgrimage
Bouncing like rubber balls
Down undulating streets

Father swirled in affectionate winds
Chanting cheery tunes
Waving his arms trying to fly high

Father stood on shivering streets
Teary clothes & shaking limbs
And smiles

Father smiled 10,000,000 times
And 1,000,000 times laughed out loud

Father's soul poured out music for
all to hear delighting


"El Padre" by David Hart  (Translation by Daniel Tucker)

El Padre soñó con los arboles bailers y los flores
Contando con júbilo

El Padre miró las coches en peregrinación
Rebontando como si fueran pelotas de goma
Por las calles ondulandas

El Padre se arremolinó en los vientos sensibles
Cantando las tonadas alegres
Saludando con sus brazos queriendo volar alto

El Padre estaba de pie en las calles temblantes
Las ropas llorosas y las miembras sacudiendose y sonrisas

El Padre sonrió por diez millones de veces
Y un millón de veces se rió fuerte

El espiritu de Padre desahogó la musica para
Todos oyeran deleitándose
Translated into Spanish by Daniel Tucker 2007
