Poetry Quote by Pablo Neruda — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“I hunger for your sleek laugh and your hands the color of a furious harvest. I want to eat the sunbeams flaring in your beauty.”

“Then I speak to her in a language she has never heard, I speak to her in Spanish, in the tongue of the long, crepuscular verses of Díaz Casanueva; in that language in which Joaquín Edwards preaches nationalism. My discourse is profound; I speak with eloquence and seduction; my words, more than from me, issue from the warm nights, from the many solitary nights on the Red Sea, and when the tiny dancer puts her arm around my neck, I understand that she understands. Magnificent language!”

“In the end, everyone is aware of this:”

“I crave your mouth, your voice, your hair.”

“Love is a clash of lightnings”

“Poetry is an act of peace. Peace goes into the making of a poet as flour goes into the making of bread.”

“oxygen”

“Love is bitter, death is sweet.”

“Life without strife is a rose without thorns.”

“LADY LAZARUS”

“There are three lessons I would write-”

“What would the world be, once bereft”
