Francesco’s poem encourages us to explore the power of words. find purpose and resilience, navigate life’s storms, and a legacy of love and exploration, exclusively for Different Truths

 Words again
 full of wind and thoughts
 in our hands, they will be
 commitments and responsibilities
 excavations in the crosses and verses.
 Come into this heart
 leave tired voices behind
 around the reflections
 spring, the moorings
 hoist the anchor.
 Unfold the sails
 Breathe your time, man
 sails the sea and the oceans
 between storms and storms
 Always head for the stars.
 The silent islands will be
 The eternal songs
 inside history and memories
 and the different tracks in each port
 invisible landings, beloved.
