la voz de cecilia
by Carolyn Covillein a voz tan tranquilla, as soft as a whisper
she soothes el alma, she cleanses wounds.
pero es la misma voz that invokes a rage from within;
power, longing.
sus palabras are passion,
they move even the most stubborn corazon.
her words bring us together, they remind us
que somos unos bajo el mismo cielo. 12/25/2004 Author's Note: had the privilege of seeing Chilean poet Cecilia Vicuna perform. translations: *voice so calm*; *the soul*; *but it's the same voice*; *her words*; *heart*; *we are one under the same sky*
