In The Quietness of Library

What a beautiful moment 
in the quietness of library
between books and thoughts;
A soul goes away far out of the jail;
Arouses by the rhythm of tranquility
Of letters, in the minds, voices
we cannot hear them in markets;
And, of words, a music
it's being played for the souls,
a mood to dance with the beloved
 
What a beautiful moment 
in the quietness of library,
between letters and words
the letters beat for
a new life to begin.
