A child
Sighing winds Whispering trees Flapping wings Yawning sun Country mornings Awaiting fun A child running After a butterfly His cries rising High in the sky Green meadows Swarming with bees Pasturing cows Mourning doves Near old ladies Remembering loves

Dog’s life
A child and a dog, Both lost in the smog, Sharing almost everything, Bed, meal and ceiling, Wandering in the night Out of people's sight To fall asleep anywhere, With no cover but their hair. A dog and a child, together, Live, survive and suffer Under the cold of winter. But people seem colder When seeing both creatures That show strange features, They go on walking

Wooden hearts
He lies in the middle of the road His wounds bleeding People around Just keep watching With wooden hearts The curtains down coming This is the end of a tragedy He has just played his last cards To face such an awful destiny Neither the wounds give up bleeding Nor people give up watching

Hope Looking desperately at the sky Not, at all, aiming high, An Afghan refugee Wonders where to flee. A child of not more than five Obliged to keep hope alive In the face of so many dangers: Mines, missiles, hunger and vultures. O lost son! I am so sorry I could not calm your worry.

Shadow That tear on your cheek seemed to be Like moonlight reflected on a quiet sea. We both were young and somehow crazy. I was the bee; you were the daisy.
We were too young to understand. Our love was too weak to withstand. If only we could believe it to succeed. We chose the word; we forgot the deed.
Do you remember as I still do? All the wonder in this life was you. Tell me if I am mistaken or what.
Now you are nothing but the shadow Of a young girl I knew years ago,

Ashes Smoke rises in the air As lost souls fade away After the end of a nightmare, War that let nothing But ashes everywhere. A dead woman lying On her cold child Had tried to save him in vain. With her hands, so tender and mild, She wanted to cover him from a fire rain. Were they men or devils? Those who dared shoot both dead? I am afraid, more than wild animals, They had neither a heart nor a head.

Lies With their snaky neck-ties, They pose before the cameras To bestow upon us with lies About the best of all the eras. Even a child of less than ten Can immediately realize The nasty trick and then Lose faith. Though wise Politicians pretend to be, The result, at last, belies All they promised yesterday.

Who? Who wins when a mine explodes And an innocent child falls On the burning ground Unconscious of the world around To awake after long hours And see he lost his members?

What? Human waves flowing While the cannons blowing, The widows wailing And the orphans crying. What do they harvest, those who send soldiers to burst down the innocents’ houses and inflict upon them such heavy losses? What do they win, those Who sell destructive weapons To rival nations or factions And, thus, make their end close?

Wonder She used to go down to the river To fill her buckets with water. Like an insane, I used to follow her. It was one lovely summer. I used to anticipate her And jump into the water. She would let me suffer. As usual, I caught fever. She was a real wonder. I was too young to gather She was to leave soon or later. While I was thinking in wonder, I was surprised by my mother: “You will no more catch fever!” Only then did I gather The one I used to call “Wonder”

Game He was a child with every right to play. As usual, he was so glad that day When the sky began raining with fire He was but a child with a huge desire To play with children of his age, Unaware of hatred, revenge and rage. Another innocent among so many others, Killed, mutilated or left without fathers. The coward behind the handle is decorated in a solemn act with all vampires invited to celebrate the murder of innocent people in a nasty, unfair and unequal battle.
