That window? Oh,
That's another brother's room.
He only comes out in winter, though.
Even if he stood on a beach
Facing a golden sunset with his
Feet covered in warm sand and
Gulls chattering and skimming
Over the breakers,
He'd only see an abandoned barn
in a field of new snow ahead and
He'd only hear the crunching
Of ice glazed gravel under
His boots and an
Occasional cawing crow.

I would like to translate this poem
I have to admit... the tactile presentation of barn, crunching snow, and cawing crow could well linger in my memory longer than the postcard sunset. -chuck
