Since 1875

The smell of the perfume is dancing

in the air; proudly, tenderly.

The wet sky washes the stormy brain,

enduring the sweet sorrows; bare and boundless.

Today, the world is at last hers.

She admires the raindrops.

Watching them hitting one by one,

melting down the dirty snow

just like the summer heat dissolving

a blueberry sorbet scoop in the antique land.

The steamy window is nothing less

than an old treasure map, guiding her to

the moment of truth; to nostalgia.

Breaking the steam, she writes down

her thoughts: “I shall move yet again.”
