DREAM – REALITY

he looked at the sky

didn’t see the sun

looked at the earth

didn’t see shades

looked  at the trees

didn’t see birds

looked at the meadow

didn’t see flowers

looked at the footwalk

didn’t see people

looked at the roadway

didn’t see vehicles

looked anywhere

saw nothing

awaken or still sleeping

didn’t   understand

didn’t see the sun

but felt its warmth

didn’t see the shades

but felt  their cool breathing

didn’t see birds

but heard their somgs

didn’t see people

but heard their steps

THE REAL LOVE

The real love – I know –

doesn’t depend  on the age

and not  the beauty  is

the most important thing

nor the lovers’ gender

the love  has – we see –

many thousands of forms

who can understand

who in whom and why

falls – so often suddenly

or only slowly –in  love

   THE SOUL

somebody died

somebody was born

the soul of the died man

has found a new body

maybe the death is only

a rest for the soul

when it can  change clothes

and continue its never-ending way

in new clothes.
