Prima vista

This morning started

in a black hole.

Of course I tried

with some candles

and piano music

to create with

might and main

the right atmosphere

It didn't help at all.

The questions about

the how and what

of our dark lives

kept spoiling

the atmosphere.

This afternoon ended

in a sunlit room.

They served with

might and main

coffee with milk,

fresh meringues.

On the background

sounded the music

of a hurdy-gurdy.

We had no clue

of the how and what

of our bright lives.

Still, we felt happy.
