Transparency



Do you know, my Heart,
why I love autumn?
Just for this special scent with hundreds of shades.

Your smells,  the fog's smells,
the plums orchard smells,
the Italian village smells with its freshly baked bread, young wine, olives, starch napkins in the tavern and woolen coat,
that warms you on the porch.

Do you know, my Heart,
why I love autumn colors?
Just for a pastel calm, harmony, daily changes.
Autumn is like a beloved woman,
which you discover every day, every hour.
And these discoveries are so pleasing,
that you want to live forever
and believe in the illusory nature of time.
