Close my Eyes

Poem

I close my eyes
A shut door
A shut shop 
To see magnolia blossoms
On the city streets 

Soon there will be time 
for rhubarb pie
Cups of tea
On a picnic blanket 
Dreaming under a clear blue sky

Summer fruits and berries
At the first image 
spring to mind hope and fairytales 
Between the snowdrop’s farewell
And a magnolia’s welcome.
