How To Get Rid Of Phlegm In An 8 Month Old

The Puppet

If for a moment God would forget

that I am a rag doll

and give me a piece of life,

may not say everything I think,

but I would think everything I say.

would value things not for their worth,

but what they mean.

sleep little, dream more,

know that for each minute we close our eyes,

lose sixty seconds of light.

would walk when others hold

wake when others sleep.

listen when others talk,

and how to enjoy a good ice cream

of chocolate.

If God give me a piece of life,

dress simply, I would throw myself flat under the sun,

baring not only my body

but my soul.

God, if I had a heart,

write my hate on ice,

and wait for sunrise.

paint a Van Gogh dream

on the stars a poem Benedetti,

and a Serrat song would be the serenade

them to the moon.

with tears I would water roses,

to feel the pain of their thorns,

and the incarnated kiss of their petals ...

God, if I had a piece of life ...

would not let a day pass

without telling the people I love,

that I love.

convince each woman or man

that are my favorites

and live in love with love.

A would show men how wrong

are,

to think that they cease to love when

age,

without knowing aging

when they cease to love.

To a child I shall give wings,

but I would let him learn to fly.

A would teach the old that death

not come with old age but with forgetting.

So many things I learned from you,

men ...

I've learned that everyone wants to live

on top of the mountain,

Without knowing that true happiness

is on the way up the slope.

I've learned that when a newborn

squeezes his tiny fist

for the first time the finger of his father,

he has him trapped forever.

I learned that a man has the right

to look down on another

when it to help him up.

so many things I have learned from you,

but really have not much to serve,

because when I keep them within this suitcase,

unfortunately I will be dying.
