the onion in father's hands didn't have time to cry,
with his fist punched it on the corner of the table, spread salt and
ate it with sheep's cheese,
(like the builders of the pyramids, my dad was paid in onions)
the onion in my mother's hands was sweet and made many leaves,
spring after spring she shared it throughout the village,
people were wondering: how does not bring tears,
every time I have an onion in my hand I think,
to clean it with my hands,
cut it with a knife, or
punch it with a fist,
the onion in my hands
is waiting
Onion - the symbol of eternal life
