Tick tock – mocks the clock
While dreams bring memories of flowers,
Through the ashes, through the hours.
Tick tock – mocks the clock
While the old man sleeps,
His childhood returns completely.
Tick tock – mocks the clock
Exchanged cells dance in flip-flop
And the boy wakes up on earth’s top.
Tick tock – mocks the clock
Tiny petals over the fall
Spinning flowers of recall.
Tick tock – mocks the clock
Despite the mockery,
Your child lives dreamily.
