epics of a nation

more horizon would have
more would lull the dream
of the Lusitania spirit
to go beyond the blue...

fears broken
in the waves of the sea,
winds past
to fulfill a nation...

cinnamon from India,
gold from Brazil,
sun of Timor,
rewards of fearlessness...

a thousand epics,
tragedies too,
sea conquered,
worlds discovered...

lost fortune
by a bad head
and bad luck
more the myth did not want...
