“It’s been a while since the ripe fruits dropped their tiny pearl shaped seeds. One day we’ll shake off the winter. We will sprout and stretch our tiny little arms towards the sun. We will wake up together once again, run out the door, wave our brightly coloured sticks in an endless parade and feel the warm breeze against our skin.
While we wait, we’ll continuously cleanse our hands, bake bread like our ancestors. In solitude we knead the dough at dawn. Does your father happen to be a baker?
This day is two minutes longer than the day before. You this feeling of standing still, but below our feet the Earth is still moving. You might glimpse a streak of light along the horizon.
