Dies Iovis

[boccaderlupo]

Not only the riches and splendor of the great
are the dominion of Kronion Zeus—
no.

The soft patter of rain in the garden,
a heart blooming with good cheer,
a house brimming with laughter,
the shouts of children at play
in verdant fields—

these and much more are
the bounties of Immortal Giove,
father of gods and men,
who freely bestows his good gifts
upon happy mortals,
the showers of his manifold favor.
