Here’s a short poetic piece inspired by Memorias de la Alhambra (the famous tremolo guitar piece by Francisco Tárrega, evoking the Moorish palace in Granada):
Inside the lions’ courtyard, shadows recite geometry. The moon, that old Christian spy, climbs the tiles and turns them into prayer rugs. memorias de la alhambra
No sultan remains, only the echo of a fountain learning to mourn in slow arpeggios. Here’s a short poetic piece inspired by Memorias
The fountain does not ask time for permission. It keeps pouring its silver language over stones that once held the hem of sultanas. The fountain does not ask time for permission
The guitar trembles — not from cold, but from memory: the water still knows the names of the disappeared.
And I, a traveler late to my own death, carry the Alhambra inside a drop of water — weightless, eternal, dying in each tremolo.
I walk where the myrtle holds its breath. Each arch, a drowsy eyelid; each column, a forgotten verse from the Quran.
