A Song
by DUSAN KOVACEVIC BATALION from Serbia.
A song is not a letter on paper.
A song are the thoughts that come out.
A song is a picture that is written. A song is long after the rain.
A song is a reflection of feeling.
A song is a wish and hope.
A song is a dream that is dreaming. A song is the feeling of our state.
A song is the air that breathes.
A song is a branch that swings.
A song is a moving country.
A song is the source of our happiness.
A song is a stream that flows.
A song always tells us something.
A song is a tree, a song is a sea.
A song is a flat and even worse,
a song is all around us.
A song is a message, a song is a voice,
a song is our great joy.
A song is a child, a song is youth.
A song is sadness, great sadness.
A song is our greatest friend.
