A Boy and a Girl
OCTAVIO PAZ, ERIC E WHITACRE
Stretched out on the grass,
A boy and a girl.
Savoring their oranges,
Giving their kisses like waves exchanging foam.
Stretched out on the beach,
A boy and a girl.
Savoring their limes,
Giving their kisses like clouds exchanging foam.
Stretched out underground,
A boy and a girl.
Saying nothing, never kissing,
Giving silence for silence.
