Sometimes

it is light at dawn, then it gets dark. The leaves of the chestnut are trembling. Hardly they are trembling. Somebody is speaking to the roots, stroking the bark shaky, with eyes like poppies. And he is crying… He is watering the ground or is speaking to the faces behind the mirror. The pail is hitting against the walls of a well.
