Analysis of A tree



Mar sanjaš ivnato drevesce
o prgiščih belih vatic
ki me objemajo in se norčujejo
soncu ki mojih vejičastih prstov
ne znajo dovolj toplo poljubljati
Odvrne  ivnato drevesce  mislim na svoje podplataste
korenine ki govorijo srebrn čist
jezik ivju  da jih napijejo
Ivnata belina se v sesutju zasmeje
z milim vetrcem ki položi
vataste pahuljice na tla Ne upam
stopiti na te stopinjice Negibno
bom počakala in zasledovala do
pomladi ta bel prah ko bo
dovolil eleganco barv zelenega letnega časa
