Tamar

I love you little branch 
Dancing in the breeze 
Little leaf laughing at the cloud 
Little wind flirting with the trees' 
Old ego, playing smart 
Trying to find roots 
Where there is no topsoil; the heart 
Still wants - more than lutes' 
Five minutes of pleasure. 
I like you patiently becoming 
What you have seen before, 
And what you talked about; knowing 
It only as the life of others. Sure 
You will for different reasons make 
The same sweet choices; 
Sure, your fear will be larger: take 
The the salt with the spices. 
I like you little flower 
You are the perfume for my hour.
