Poem

Ana Paula Inácio

Miracles happen

Miracles happen
at odd hours
and I’m never at home
when the postman comes by.
Today the first flower blossomed
and I said it’s a sign.
I look around: I’m alone
I carry this shadow.

Miracles happen

Os milagres acontecem
a horas incertas
e nunca estou em casa
quando o carteiro passa.
Hoje, abriu a primeira flor
e eu disse é um sinal.
Olho em volta: estou só
trago esta sombra comigo.

Miracles happen

Miracles happen
at odd hours
and I’m never at home
when the postman comes by.
Today the first flower blossomed
and I said it’s a sign.
I look around: I’m alone
I carry this shadow.

Miracles happen

Miracles happen
at odd hours
and I’m never at home
when the postman comes by.
Today the first flower blossomed
and I said it’s a sign.
I look around: I’m alone
I carry this shadow.
