Quiet is the moment
tall barren trees stand still
motionless are the roots
cling to their own windowsill
Where is human motion
turn to look the other way
turn to look the other way
all is quiet no one to greet
for a leisurely chat today
Still cold outside one hides
spring brings a brighter look
those hidden will submerge
again let's chat by the brook
People who converse with others
find joy many love to share
happiness consumes conversation
lives to be taken everywhere
lives to be taken everywhere
