The hands dance
In the dial
Of the clock

The suns, follow the moons
In this sky
Covered by the dust

The old shopkeeper
Every morning he rises
From his bed

Who knows though, what he thinks
Among those shelves
So monotonous

Outside the store
The mothers wait, the line
So they can get their milk

The children in the street
Get up late
Observing the sky

With the enchanted eyes
Of the swallows waiting
The return of summer

Oh, my time
You, so simple a succession
Of seasons

Put wings on these moments
So that they fly
In a riot Of butterflies
