As I step out of the gym into the fresh air
A whiff of cookies baking
strolls into my nose
I take a deep breath
Oh bliss, pure bliss...
She gives, she gives and then she gives some more...
We take, we take and then we take some more..
Till she's all spent
And there's nothing left to give
Mother refers to our beautiful earth, just like a mother she is selfless. Now she's tired and we must all wake up and help her survive.
Your fragrance
Like a field of wild roses
Descends upon me
I shut my eyes...
Just to feel you near
A breeze waltzes by
Lifts, disturbs the leaves
Once lying still
Now dancing and rejoicing
Muffling the sound of traffic
From the highway near by..
Orange violet skies
Tears in my eyes
Why does something so beautiful
Make me cry...
They called her "Easy"
I don't know why
I quite liked her
Her kind smile
She wore shiny bright clothes
Looked awesome to me
Mum and the neighbors would collect in the corridor
Talk about her
I wandered why
They spent so much time
Talking about someone
they did not like...
Pop Pop what's that I hear
Pop Pop pop pop pop
An elderly man in front of me falls to the ground
I fall to the floor
crouched against the checking counter
I see thru a crack
A young man in a cashier's uniform  
Pushes a few people to the ground
No more than 16 years old
He rushes towards the gunman
Charges into him
Pop Pop pop pop pop
For a second his body
Dances in the air
Lifeless he falls to the ground
His last dance
This young brave hero
So young
So much potential
Gone in a second
Gone too soon...
