After the Holidays
The summer
Came to an end
This is not the land
of the man of the Fall
The evening
Light and cool
Keeps reminding
Us now
There is still, between the trees,
A safe home
After the holidays
We’ll weed the grass
And we’ll plant flowers in the garden
There is still
A silent prayer of the heart,
After the holidays
We’ll fix the mistakes
And we’ll start from the beginning
Wait for me
Don’t be silent
Don’t cut
The ties
Smile to me
Don’t be tired
Don’t burn
The bridges
