A few lines from ‘The Jasmine Bloom’

A Few Moments More

You knock on my door…

And tell me to follow you

It’s time, you say

Time to leave.

I realize

I need a few moments more

I need to see how the jasmine I planted come out in the spring

And if the amaltas flowers will be as beautiful this summer.

I need to hear my girl’s laughter once more, See her smile light

up the room once more

I need to take her small hand in mine…

And thank God once more…

I need to visit countries, continents.

I need to see all the world has got to show me.

Oh there is so much I need to do!

Can’t we wait a bit?

Come- let’s wait a bit.

A few moments more

A few years more.
