Dante Gabriel Rossetti | The Sonnet / Il sonetto

The Sonnet

A Sonnet is a moment's monument,-

Memorial from the Soul's eternity

To one dead deathless hour. Look that it be,

Whether for lustral rite or dire portent,

Of its own intricate fulness reverent:

Carve it in ivory or in ebony,

As Day or Night prevail; and let Time see

Its flowering crest impearled and orient.

D'Annunzio / Antonio Sgarbossa | Rimani / Stay!

Rimani! Riposati accanto a me.
Non te ne andare.
Io ti veglierò. Io ti proteggerò.
Ti pentirai di tutto fuorchè d'essere venuto a me, liberamente, fieramente.
Ti amo. Non ho nessun pensiero che non sia tuo;
non ho nel sangue nessun desiderio che non sia per te.
Lo sai. Non vedo nella mia vita altro compagno, non vedo altra gioia
Rimani.
Riposati. Non temere di nulla.
Dormi stanotte sul mio cuore....

Gabriele D'Annunzio (1863-1938) Scrittore, poeta, drammaturgo, militare, politico e giornalista italiano.
