Solid Joy, a Poem by Valentina Ciurleo

Champions of the truth
an achievable goal 
as far as possible.
I have been inspecting roots 
for a long time
in the long earth
seeds can speak.
I am just the same
despite the years,
despite the time
A digging life,
in the difficult demand
in the lost dream.
I keep on being fruit 
a solid joy 
is nearby.

- Valentina Ciurleo
Italy 
(Translation in English by Anna Maria Curci)


Valentina Ciurleo was born in Roma (Italia) in 1973 where she lives and works. Hers poems are present in anthologies and literary sites. She writes for the magazine "La Recherche" and currently dedicates himself to photography by associating images and words.
