@ 7 poetically: Teresa Mattei: the fire that lives

A Teresa Mattei: the fire that lives – Lino Milita

I’m back, excited to see me again.
The laces laughs the actor arrived
who faces deposited over time.
The guest speaker, but the other is silent.

The departure is near and the mask
desperate to embrace the old link,
but the answer is to that past.
The pain changes the irony in resentment.

The trip builds memories dying
that will reshape to the new meeting
and new tears reopen old wounds.

The harsh openings make it malleable.
The force increases, as it fades.
The fire inside the touch and she is reborn.

Teresa Mattei, said Teresita (Genoa, 1 February 1921 – Lari, March 12, 2013) was an Italian partisan and political.
She was in training fighter Garibaldi “Youth Front” (with the rank of Company Commander). She was the youngest elected to the Constituent Assembly, where she assumed the post of secretary in the Bureau of the Constituent Assembly. She was also “Executive National Union of Italian Women” and she was the inventor of the use of mimosa for “Women’s Day” the eight of March. The idea came to her when she learned that Luigi Longo intended to give to the women for that day of violets; Mattei intervened suggesting a flower poorer and more common in the countryside.
