I think the king is but a man, as I am: the violet · Henrique Guerra

He’s in Arthur’s bosom, if ever man went to

I think the king is but a man, as I am: the violet smells to him as it doth to me.

Henrique Guerra

1491-06-28 — 1547-01-28 · Palácio de Placentia

Henrique Guerra was a Portuguese poet whose work is part of the literary context of the 20th century. He stood out for his lyrical and reflective approach to universal themes, using careful language and a style that dialogues with Portuguese poetic tradition, but with a touch of modernity. His poetry is marked by introspection and the exploration of the human condition, addressing love, solitude, and the ephemerality of life with sensitivity and depth.
