One must keep a few smiles aside to laugh at oneself on joyless days.

The sea
This one seen to dance alongside the clear gulfs
To the reflections silver
The sea
Of the changeable reflections
Under rain.

The clock goes tic-tac-tic-tic
The birds of the lake pic-pac-pic-pic
Glou-glou-glou go all the turkeys
And the pretty bell ding-dang dong But... BOOM!
When our heart goes Boom,
All else says Boom
And it is Love that awakens.
