In the Shadow of the Tree

Roads

1

In the shadow of the tree I am,

a boat moves away.

My heart cries,

he would also want to leave...!

Butterflies fly from one

to another spring.

The clouds pass.

2

Lonely,

the bell

shows me the way.

Its metallic singing

opens and closes the day.

Morning laughter, sunset crying.

Nightingale of the towers,

his ringing renews

the verdure of the willows.

3

Full of mud,

the walker walks away

chasing the crows.

Find the wife company

in the sweet murmur of the shower,

look at the moon. For her,

the winter is a lightning

full of holiness and shadows.

4

No one is already on this road

too abrupt...

Human banality!

5

In the pond

summer is reflected.

Stillness in the branches.

The frog sleeps

on the wet rock.

Not a noise in the afternoon.

6

The flowers are silent,

the twilight speaks,

the wind grumbles.

The world

seems to have fallen

in the clutches of a black kite.

What will be your destiny?

We will have to find a new nest

between the cliffs of the high mountains!

7

The night, lying on the sea,

has forgotten the world.

The sound of the wind

brings jade reflexes.

In the darkness everything disappears...!

But life goes on, there,

behind the high mountains.

So soft, the moon looks

a spring flower.

8

Tired of the trip,

I look for the cozy belly

of a home to stay.

Sunrise of the sun,

rainy afternoon…

This is the spring!

A deer roars. Then,

the infinite wake of silence.
