Other lives

The mother writes to her exiled son:
the morning reminds me of you, waking up to study for exams
I hope you are well, folded between the wind and the longing 
towards home

the lover breaks into her lover
I hope you know how hard a waterfall
catches earth, each crash of a droplet
breaks even when it is beautiful

the silent sun breaks into the world
what thoughts do these sleepers lay 
before I wake them up by the start of the day
opening the doors to a good morning

here and there the trees begin to regain blood,
reign color, lush beauty. I sit still pleading
The almond has bloomed 
but where are you?
