THE DIVINE BREATHING 

OF MEMORIES

Today we didn’t think of anything bad.

Life seemed to be easier and longer for us…

No one shared sin with themselves,

no one spared the days that flew by.

I heard voices of the past,

the river impetuously rushed into the distance

and the heavens breathed in slowly

the clouds, cold as pieces of ice.
