CHILDREN’S EYES
by kapardeli eftichia
The houses of the city tightened
the snow in the roofs stretched out
two lights in the end of the street
two children’s eyes
they read the shades
of the persons who were passing
the smell of bread unfolds in air
Thousands of stretched out hands
Thousands of children’s eyes asking it.
