This paper analyzes the traces of the Amazonian cosmogony present in the poetic of the imaginary of João de Jesus Paes Loureiro. The author Abaetetubense lived part of his childhood on the shores of the islands and carries, in his writing, memorialistic traces of the mythic riverside narratives. Thus, his cultural and intellectual formation is marked by the poetic of the waters. The study has in its corpus analytical passages of poems as "mythical Landscape", "Abaetetuba Always", and “the luminous and sad history of the Cobranorate “,” Sing of Iara, among others. To identify the most representative traits of the Amazonian cosmogony, the study dialogues with authors from the field of Mythology, the imaginary and the Amazonian culture. The analysis of poems was based on a discursive and narratological reading based on cultural studies. The research selected a poetic corpora in order to read the cosmogonic features of the Amazon in the author's poetics. In this sense, it was based on authors such as Eliade (1963), Pizarro (2012) and Paes Loureiro (2000) as a self-theorist. Thus, mythical narratives emerge as an experience and a way of explaining the complex formation of the Amazonian universe, consisting of narratives that give voice to the peoples of that region. The cultural scenes evinced, in this narrative study, beings enchanted from the depths of rivers, forests and legitimize the cosmology of the Enchantments, categorized by Paes Loureiro as an aestizant poetic. Thus, through the poetic writing of this author, this article identifies the relationship between nature and mythical narratives, observing the regime of waters as a phenomenon that exerts great influence on the life of the Amazonian Caboclo, whether in the way of seeing or To construct the genesis of the (re) creation of the world and of Amazonian beings.
