I AM IN THE MOMENT

The earth is on holiday today

Heavens are in charge

Snow descends restively

The park is entrusted to the birds

The trees feel cold but delighted

 

Snowman is bewildered

His nose is being picked apart by children

Who have reddish smile.

Children are joy of present, question marks of future

 

Should I drop the dilemmas in the sea

Circles are to be drawn on water.

Every innocent photograph I take

Brings me closer to the rhyme.

 

If only I could write in large flakes

If only the overflowing lines would develop wings

Even though the most beautiful one was written

The poem will melt when snowing stops

 

The happiness of living the moment and me…

Today, I live with all my heart and soul
