You came, you left
So fast, so swift
Like the lightning
It's here, it's gone
...
How could you have grown so tall!
You were just a tiny cone
Quietly pointing towards the sky.
Were you trying to tell me that
...
I await the wind
To blow me from where I am
Drop me with enough force and sound
To wake me up from a prolonged sleep
...
A tiny speck
It shines and twinkles
In the dark, immense sky.
The nomads in the desert,
...
My son,
What thoughts race through
My mind when I see you?
What do I feel when I see you?
...
