DEVOTION IS A HEAVY CROSS
Devotion is a heavy cross,
but you are lovely and direct;
the mystery of your attractions
is powerful as the key to life.
Scuffling of dreams is heard in spring,
rustle of newsand truths. And your
family sprang from such beginnings.
Your mind’s impartial as the air.
Lightly to waken, see again,
shake from the heart its wordy litter
and live in future days unchoked,
surely all that needs no great cunning.
                        Boris Pasternak                (tradução de J. M. Cowen)
