a rich autumn
in the garden cleaners
collecting colours

listening to blues
in the metro I missed
several trains

a colourful square
the new lover entering
at number five

frozen field weed
a goldfinch under the snow
picking berries

at dead of night
the shops are closed
neon signs shine

even in the cross-fire
the butterfly doesn't seem
to be in a hurry
