Slow steps on

Alien asphalt

Your head slightly bowed

You will not see

The child´s eyes

Behind bars

Watching your back.

Your eyes now caressing

The green trees and soft sprouts

Waiting for you in your garden

And the sound of the starting engine

Will drown

The whispered cry

When my last birds die

Your car will be

Just a spot

On the distant horizon.
