The title itself was alerting and interesting, also for some logical reason the words in the title gave me that grumpy emotion; leaving is instinctively connected with sadness, somehow.

And then comes the poem with it's amazing opening, amazing stanzas and amazing closing verse... The poem is really worked on very hard, you can tell by the word choice and their order. By the connections and by the metaphors used.

But then all at the same level, the poems feels very natural, inevitable and raw. Touching..
Cuba will always be here...what an epic poem and what a master piece, one which anyone should and can and will relate to, each with his own way :)

thank you for sharing such a beautiful poem.
