WATERCOLOR

In a piece of paper I draw a yellow sun.
And with five or six straight lines it's easy to draw a castle.
With a pencil I go round my hand and I get a glove.
And if I produce rain with two strokes I have an umbrella.
If a tiny drop of paint falls on a  blue piece of the paper.
In an moment I imagine a beautiful seagull flying in the sky.
It's flying, on and on surrounding
the immense line North and South
I'm travelling with it to Hawaii, Beijing, or Istanbul.
I paint a sail ship and navigate.
It's so much sky and sea in a blue kiss.
Among the clouds, it's appearing,
  a beautiful airplane pink and granate
Coloring all around with its lights
Just some imagination and it's taking off smoothly and nice
And if we really want, it's gonna land.
In a piece of paper I draw a departing ship.
With some good fellows drinking and cheering
the happyness of life.
From one  to the other America I cross in a blink.
I spin simples compasses and in a circle I have the world.
A boy walks on and on, so it reaches the wall.
And there a head, waiting for us, the future is.
And the future is a star ship that we try to drive in.
Busy and merciless and unschedeled to arrive
Without clearance, changes our lives.
And then invites to smile or to cry.
In this road, it's not up to us to know or see what will come.
Nobody knows for sure where it will finish.
Let's go all on a wonderful path of a watercolor.
That someday finally is
gonna fade away.
In a piece of paper I draw a yellow sun.
That will fade away.
And with five or six straight lines it's easy to draw a castle.
That will fade away.
I spin simples compasses and in a circle I have the world.
That will fade away.
