POEM: “Waiting”

Everything remains still

timeless

I don’t hear the breath of the wind

among the leaves

the clouds up there

as painted

stay suspended in the sky

distant the memories

of the harmonious melodies

of the birds in the air

In the morning

the smell of the wet earth

the drops of dew

on the thousand flowers

scattered in the fields

Come from afar

sounds and noises

like a band

of improvised musicians

the dust of fumes

darkening the air

the acrid smell of bombs

of dead bodies

meal of worms.

Silent are the men

closed have their mouths

aware or not

of their guilty silences

without expressions their eyes

looking afar maybe

waiting for…….a Godot!
