Prosa
Violas are barefoot children
The leaves of the almond trees are fresh
the walls rain spring water
you choose the comfortable shore
the donkeys trotting lightly.
The girls with the blackest eyes
they haughtily mount the screeching chariot
March is a baby who is already laughing.
And you can forget about winter:
that bends under the bodies of wood
you recited your rosary
long cold kilometers
to cook your face at the hearth.
Now the tick returns to the horses
ventilate the fly in the stables
and the children are barefoot
they attack the tufts of violets.
(1948)
