Sometimes birds look at me
Gouache on paper, 2019


Sometimes the birds look at me,
and with their wings they tell me
Sometimes the birds look at me,
and only with their eyes I guess
their sorrows and their fears,
Sometimes the birds look at me,
not to let anyone to cut off my flight,
not to let anyone to steal my dreams.
Sometimes the birds look at me,
and with their feathers I feel the wind,
Sometimes the birds look at me,
then as a mirror they look out
that poppies have.
