I wonder if and how a flower
understands the time and hour

I wonder how a tree
understands infinity

does it check the clock to see
what the day and time may be

or does it ask a human being
even if it is not agreeing

what would heaven tell the earth
if it asked it when it gave birth

what would the ocean tell the sky
if it asked it when it will die

it wonders not what will be
and silently speaks of infinity
