Morning

M'illumino d'Immenso.

A very short poem by Ungaretti,
“Mattina” is translated
I am illuminated by immensity.

After four hours of sleep,
The baby woke me.
The sky was light.

And if the sun has not yet risen,
I feel the morning’s immensity
Back in the confines of my own house.

Feel the immensity of this place,
My home.
