CHAPLIN’S POEMS

Charles Chaplin told us that poetry is a love letter
written to an exclusive world. The part that makes it better.

I say that our Charlie Chaplin used silent films
to read these love letters to us. His silent films.

Charles Chaplin's films are gorgeous poems conveying,
in their silence, more feelings than all our spoken writing.

Chaplin's films are living love letters that move the whole world.
Word by word not said but felt. Words not said, unnecessarily in this world.

That make us cry. That make us smile.
So beautiful, exclusive in Chaplin’s style.

That increase in us the feeling of being human. Being human.
Humans who love simply, in the sophisticated way of being human.

So beauty in giving. So beauty in receiving.
Love is all that we are needing. A so great needing.

Loving as Chaplin taught us about giving and receiving.
Giving and receiving. Giving and receiving.
Much more giving and receiving. Giving and receiving.
