WINTER RIVER DANCE by ANITA HORVAT (if you give a mouse a cookie read aloud .TXT) 📖

Winter


Let us see each other
when flakes of snow
come to us
in the winter,
say you would stand on that winter
river boat

I will see you then
and come to you.

Just to say Where are you.
Cause I am searching for you in the cold winds.
I am taking a dance with winter and life too,
you know,

on the water the ice is breaking
and the clouds are good,
the snow is surley to flow
among us,
darling, see.

Shall we meet?
Shall we stand among the trees
and smile to the winter?
Say, what do you see?


Snow prince


I am wainting
along the sea
a spring of joy
and the velvet skin.

A winter prince
who dances with
snow.
Here he is.

Along the waves
with winds
he drives
a second time a sea
sirens in his carriage...

Snow prince with flakes
of ice in his eyes
he looks at me and smiles...


Tree


Why is your skin old and grey
Why are you shaking
are you through with me?
Is it winter done with you,
my tree.
You are without your clothes
and the branches are left
without the leaves.


River


Is it all
just a dream?
Say I saw a bunny
isn't it funny
along the rightside
of the long river.

The branches
gave him a little
house as he saw his face
in the river.
The water was shaking
and still the bunny
looked like something.
The winter, is
little like him.
White and sunny.
Cold and strange
jumping around like it was made
out of silly little snow flakes...In the woods.


Dance


The houses are covered with
snow and the wind is taking
the steam away to the clouds
it all is in winter attitude.

Now I see. What is that
on the window and it is staying?

Snow...Finnaly.
It is cold!

Reading a book.
Tea and a cake,
what else?

Snow is coming
and it writes me a novel.
Winter, how I love you.


Make cold warm


Alone in the dark
the shadows of the dark
are watching for the glance
of first tommorow.
A ghost.
A ghost is sitting in my chair.
Look, he says, the winter!

Through the window
a little light, shivering
I cry, what?
A snow ice what a suprise?
How suddendly this here?

Smilling, jumping.
Hold me.
Must make a snow ball.
A snowgirl and a snowboy
to love.
In the garden.
See.


Tea


Tree in the forest,
dances, the sun is gone
beside the mountain
and the streets are empty.
Nothing to hear, to see.
The night and the stars,
the planets and meteoroids.
Look.
How cute.
The trees are filled with bronze
of glitter...Snow.
Snow. Snow...Is here.


Water


Ice touch on my lips,
the coldness.
What has winter left me
in the fireplace
a good song and a masterpiece
of tears.
How cruel water in the winter
shivers through the ground.
And the tears...
The footsteps in the snow,
the cold in the trees.
That how winter feels.
Alone.


Story


An old lady tells us a story
about winter,
the snowflake princess
is trapped in the castle
of ice, in the cage of bells
and the winter king
is flying to save her,
in the shadow of the star flake.
And he struggles with abcence
of sun.
But as I see in the sky
the train of clouds
covered the railways
of sun and brought to us
the gifts of winter
the light of freeze and cold.
Wind.


Bear


Who sleeps?
Who is watching?
In the forest all is silent
as the bear sleeps.
He sleeps all winter
to the spring.
But he doesn't miss
all the snow kiss
that I see as he is surly
dreaming it.
Now.


Take it to the snow


Dance, my fairy.
And bring joy to the soul.

I will take it to the snow
all my sorrow and all my pain.

All was washed in the rain.
And snow.


Crying in the snow


Mouse. Running.
In the snow.
Left alone in the dark
beside the cat,
watching.

Crying in the snow
a cold breeze
made my mouse freeze.
But a warm gentle touch
made him jump.
And the cat made a sound.
The snow was covering
the ground
and the golden cold light
over the city
gave me joy.


Star


Come let us dance
around the tree
and forget
all that is happend.
The past has been
and nothing will change.
The time has past
and all is forgiven.
But the hot sun
is far away
and the sea is cold.
The new age
in this woman begins today.
A hour of fullness.


Made me say See you, never


Through our talks
I discovered something
bad.
You made me do
so many wrong choices.
For me.
For me you are a river
without end.
And I am an ice ocean filled
with tears,
dreams that will never be.
My life is ruined.
Must leave
and never share a tear.
You made me say see
you never, darling.


Fat lie


In the papers
that you left
on your desk
I saw a picture
of snow and you.
The animals
in the book
you once gave me
were also there
around you
and you were
hugging a bear,
how sweet.
Two weeks later
what a secret
it was a lie.
You made that picture
all by yourself.


Hali


Sit on my hand
like a butterfly
and let me take you
to the hills.
We will wait for snow
to make statues.
Invisible the chains
of life are taking
charges.
We are long appart.
You are in the diffrent
country.
Write.


Ally


With the ally
of my dreams
I saw a snow avalanche
coming to me...
I was in the cottage
and I was drinking tea...
What...an avalanche
of my life this must be
a
smile. Life.


Let me


Let me say
stars are away.
We are sorry
that we stand on the hill
and that we are
not in love.
The snow is on my hair
and while you are touching
my hand
I hear the owl sing.
Yes my dear all is gone.
The snow is covering you
tonight, but donot be sad
all in life is good and bad.
In this hour of life. Tonight.


As

As we were wet
on the rain
we will be seen
in the cold ice wind
in the town.
Our eyes will be ice
and we will be shadowly
like clouds.
As we are filled with true.
Now.
