Stop for a moment.
Imagine that one day you will embrace silence.
You will look backwards and you will recognize
that this silence always rocked you to dream
about boy who gave a falling leaf,
about nights longer than day,
about lost years,
about not ending talks at dusk ,
about stormy wind which lifts up the waves of the sea,
about warm summer like a desert wind,
about fire of dancing bodies,
about horizon of fulfilled fantasy,
about soul brave as a lion,
about forgiveness of inequitable sins,
about harvest of ripe apples,
about fresh bread in the morning.
Stop for a moment.
Imagine that one day you will pass away.
You will look bakwards and you will recognize
that everything on earth has deeper meaning
boundless despair,
fulfilled promise,
sense of hopelessness,
carefree laughter,
overwhelming piece of art,
passionate kiss,
poetry before bedtime,
long walks in forest,
thick fog in the morning,
birth of a child,
glittering stars in the sky,
wild dance of the senses,
sweet flavor of peach,
God's wisdom,
even your name.
Stop for the moment.
Imagine that one day you will be permeated by thougt
that the beauty in others is not ethereal.
You will look backwards and you will recognize
that you didn't appreciate significance of invisible treasures
of heart filled with hope,
of hand given for goodbay,
of secret of eyes in love,
of soul as particle of divinity,
of faith in another human being,
of prayer of child,
of warmth of awaited touch,
of taste of shed tears,
of burden of sacrifice,
of joy from happy ending,
of undying values,
of delight in the sun,
of love larger than life.
Stop for a moment.
Look backwards as long as you have time.
