Te Quiero Verde

Posted on November 11, 2018 by raoulpat


Romance Sonámbulo (Detail)

Verde que te quiero verde.
Verde viento. Verdes ramas.
El barco sobre la mar
y el caballo en la montaña.
Con la sombra en la cintura
ella sueña en su baranda,
verde carne, pelo verde,
con ojos de fría plata.
Verde que te quiero verde.

from Romance Sonambulo by Federico García Lorca.

On display at the Oakland Asian Cultural Center as part of Calligraphies in Conversation, through January 16th, 2019.

    Very beautiful work of art. Merci Raoul. Looking at your calligraphy over a text by Garcia Lorca makes one’s day!
