Love moves like a trace (runo: Milka Luhtaniemi)

Move from one place

to another, to the next open

space

like a memory it comes back

to mind, it doesn't end

and the wind blows

ahead of the previous wind

still

it goes so still

and love moves like

a trace

and everything changing

just like this

leaves something to grow

covers the traces of grass

and the wind blows

ahead of the previous wind

and love moves like a

trace

still it goes so

still
