Analysis of Ajda

sonja votolen

Tra il grano saraceno vorrei                          
scompigliarti la testa                                     
e arginare la tua bocca                                   
con la freschezza di un fiore                         

In un campo di grano saraceno                     
vorrei un bacio saraceno                              

e tra le dita sentire                                        
la tua fragranza                                             
di pane saraceno
