The evening light

In the evening, when I am asleep,

the breath of more, one child could hear,

lives in my room.

It is an old room, not the newest or last.

There are no colours in her window, or eyes.

In the night, I look for an owl.

At midnight, I hear a new smell on earth,

under the sky and heaven.

It promises new life to a futuristic generation.

I have always loved a bright summer,

in which the evening lights glow in the dark,

while I walked my dream under silver moonlight.
