Ode Marítima / Maritime Ode

Sozinho, no cais deserto, a esta manhã de Verão,

Olho pró lado da barra, olho pró Indefinido,

Olho e contenta-me ver,

Pequeno, negro e claro, um paquete entrando.

Vem muito longe, nítido, clássico à sua maneira.

Deixa no ar distante atrás de si a orla vã do seu fumo.

Vem entrando, e a manhã entra com ele, e no rio,

Aqui, acolá, acorda a vida marítima,

Erguem-se velas, avançam rebocadores,

Surgem barcos pequenos detrás dos navios que estão no porto. (...)

Did you know that Fernando Pessoa had a life plan, which, among other things, was to have several boxes to store their papers, newspapers and magazines, and even offered a box of chocolates to Ophelia Queirós, his girlfriend:

(...) Replace my large box with smaller boxes containing the papers in order of importance. In the big box and the other in A. S. would be only the newspapers and magazines I keep. (...)

Be like Fernando Pessoa, always have at hand or offer someone special this beautiful personalized box, to store papers, letters or chocolates.
