Emma

In 17 years
True carbon copy 
Of her mother
And father
Built of delectable notes 
Of blackberries  
Warmth radiating pine cones 
Mossy bergamot
And honeyed linden trees
Walking in the steps of subtle 
Yet insisting
Bells 
Of Oleggio
 
Deep down in those delicate features
The portraits of her grandmothers 
Vera and Rosella
Grandfathers
Oreste and Pierre Antonio
Keep breathing
Growing towards the light
To be seen
One more time
In a way that of a lotus flower
 
Nesting the faithful 
Dragonflies
In rich Burgundy 
Sky
Turquoise and Emerald Green
 
Of one Ephemeral pond
