many people hide
the majority runs away
they seek shelter
looking for protection
when everything retracts
they begin their secret dance
leaves, to the sound of the wind singing
branches, always gently swinging
trunks that give themselves to the moist sap
roots searching for food in this sacred gap
the impact of the raindrops never ceases!
even falling with the strength of Cesar
nothing hurts or aches
: every brusque touch becomes
just a good excuse
to create a new gesture
