roses

 Such a quiet Christmas Eve, town still full of furious car drivers in their cars in the morning, and deserted streets by the early afternoon.

It is so quiet, a last tour by the shops to pick up a few items and return home.

It was ten kilometres this morning, a short walk. Still, the legs are sore and, in a strange way, cold. It is as if the skin itself is cold. 

After a while, just lie down and cover the legs with a blanket.

Fall asleep.

"Happy Christmas" everybody, that is anybody who is listening.


Outside the children's clinic a rosebush was blooming, a day after the frost
