Want to Escape
In the middle of winter when the light fails us,
Where wan sun can warm us,
skimping his kindness as an ordinary bank,
We want to recover from both the summer.
Dreaming cruises, sailing over the blue sea,
Find the peace of these old ships
Who sought to win the famous "Blue Ribbon"
To hang the mat, this strange calico.
Or on an impulse, jump on a freighter,
Without knowing where he goes in search of adventure,
Character of romance, feel a hero,
Feeling his face, spray, bite.
It yearns to leave, find themselves on board,
Be like a child in front of a rainbow sky.
But, like everyone else, it remains on the port
Peering dark clouds over us, piling up. Snow or rain
is to choose from! And for solace,
The curtains are drawn, you must lie, malicious,
For the best trips are those imagined
Although warm under the duvet, just close your eyes.
