Treasures of the Earth
We used to run and always barefoot\nWe ate everything what we ever could - \nup to the mood\nLilac with rare five petals \nSomewhere in our neighborhood\nAcacia with its dubious sweetness...\n\nSome peas and surely with the green pods,\nGreen apricots and apples,\nGooseberries and cherries\nAlong with cherries we ate cherry pits...\nAnd even resin, just some bits ;)\n\nIn summer rains we jumped \nover the puddles...\nIn winter frosts we used to crunch some icy snow\nWe wanted everything, that doubled\nOur happiness, that only used to grow...\n\nWe were nursed by the Earth and protected\nShe played with us and spoiled like a kind grandma\nAnd treated us with love from early morning\nUntil the velvet darkest night...\n\nWe washed our braids with the rainwater,\nThe wounds were treated with plantain...\nHow I want to go back to that life or a sort of\nWhat the happiness is - I can explain!..\n\nWhere the Earth opened Her palms to us,\nFilled with wonderful gifts and treasures\nAnd treated generously and lovingly\nWith dusty, but clean fruits without measure.\n\nWe didn't use to clean \nWe didn't use to wash anything,\nWe simply used to eat and go...\nWell, when was it? Long time ago\nWhen all the trees were very tall...
