 Lucian Freud, "Naked man, back view" (1991-1992)
                                             


On longer evenings,
Light, chill and yellow,
Bathes the serene
Foreheads of houses.
A thrush signs,
Laurel-surrounded
In the deep bare garden,
Its fresh-peeled voice
Astonishing the brickwork.
It will be spring soon,
It will be spring soon —
And I, whose childhood
Is a forgotten boredom,
Feel like a child
Who comes on a scene
Of adult reconciling,
And can understand nothing
But the unusual laughter,
And starts to be happy.


Philip Larkin (1922-1985). “Poesía reunida”. 2015. Barcelona, España: Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial, S. A. U.
