Children First






By Maria Cristina Azcona











Your dark brown eyes, dearest child



Are always blue like diaphanous sky



Are made of topaz, gold and fairy wings



And have the simplicity of spherical things







Child , your joyfulness, is our first command,



our thirst and our glory







There are many children who cannot talk to us



Because they are unborn, but also there and real.







There are many children who cannot play and smile to us



Because starvation, drugs ,corruption ,hate and war



mutilated their brains and entire life.







Before money, health and romance,



you are the first priority











Dearest creature who came to us, on Earth



From angels transparencies through air and breath



Your soul is clear as clear mountain streams



And Love is the origin of your childish dreams







Child, your future is in our hand


So, we need to understand







Your needs are first, although you don’t complain



You are not unable to express yourself.



This is us who can’t get what you may necessitate



And always adult world is leaving you at the end.







Which is your sea, which is your sand



Your bay, your universe, your better place to stand







There are many children who are far away from us



In other city, without bread, an awful panorama



They are awaiting for solidarity from other countries



But yet there is not a Global Law against their drama















Child, your future is in our hand


So, we need to understand



Which is your sea, which is your sand



Your bay, your universe, your better place to stand











Child , your joyfulness, is our first command,,



our thirst and our glory



Before money, health and romance,



you ought to be our first priority

ORANGE LOVE by Maria Cristina Azcona



Orange fire



electrifies the air.



Fairy wings insinuating my swing.







Being apart in a rapture of fire,



my orange hair breaks the wind.







Acid clouds dissipate the rainbow



There’s any requiem for last night.







Golden sand and a blue deep ocean



clone the color of the sun.











Orange fury in a calmed morning



stab a knife into my bleeding heart.







Bloody tears are like pearls of wisdom...



Beauty is pale in front of



orange love.

PAZ UNIVERSAL
por Maria Cristina Azcona

Hay un lugar no lejos de aquí
donde las abejas rodean el juego infantil
y les dan dulce miel que los hace vivir

Hay un estanque donde la luna se embelesa
con sus dos caras opuestas y obesas
una negra y otra blanca, la raza no pesa.

Este es un grupo con ingenio,
la poesía siempre tiene un premio,
hay un único y solo gremio

Hay una sola voz con la que converso
con este gran y global universo
y es porque siempre lo digo en verso.

Tengamos siempre consideraciones
y no caigamos en las tentaciones
de molestar la alegría del otro con las pasiones.

Y alcanzaremos una nueva calidad
en la educación de la moralidad
con respeto a las diferencias, y habrá igualdad.





PEACE UNIVERSE
by María Cristina Azcona

There is a place not so far away
Where bees surround the children’s play
And give sweet honey to them each day

There is a pond where the moon gazes
To her two opposite rounded faces
Dark and light one, distant from races
(In this magnificent dream
There’s only one team
And poetry always wins).


There is a unique voice to converse
Around this global universe
And it’s just to say it in verse
Let us be kinder to each other
And not be tempted to bother

The joyfulness of our brother.
And let us arrive to a new quality
Through education in morality
Where differences are in equality
MARIA CRISTINA AZCONA

An exceptionally inspiring hymn to humanity's potential for grace and harmony in a world so heavily overshadowed by the traumas of violence and ignorance. These line rise and arc like a rainbow of golden faith and charity reaching from the soul of the poet to that of world, bestowing a priceless gift of angelic love everywhere it shines. Thank you for sharing this beautiful and important poetic message.

Poet Maria Cristina Azcona, your formulated, poetic words show beauty of spirit and soul, combined with intelligence and compassion, for, it will be the Voices of Poets, the Voices of People, who inspire and instill the true meaning and wisdom of a world at peace into the hearts of its brethern.

In a confused world of self-satisfaction as the means to happiness, you show and promote the wealth of harmonic elevation, and are a Shining Star to be followed, by your example, with love and respect.

From my heart to yours, I wish to extend my gratitude and admiration, and thank you for your shared gift of visional unification.
