1st December
1st December came in
Half of my world is in summer
The trees abundantly offer their fruits
For us to eat and to think
Of the graciousness of nature
The birds don’t nest their home
Around here, on the trees, anymore,
They have spread their wings to fly away
I hear their chants in the distance
And once in a while, opening my window
I see them perching on electric wires
Proud to be free, proud of their wings
In most houses it's summer too
The bells are about to ring happy ever afters
Holidays, end year, and Christmas too,
While others, still house winter in their heart
1st December came in, I woke up knowingly
That there is nothing anymore to be saved
I go on with my life, busy building my dream
So that my next winter
Might look like the summer
Of this 1st December day.
