Where time doesn't fly

I am in a quest for a place

where time doesn’t go by

on horseback, armed with a spear

and a helmet on my head

searching for the place where

time doesn’t fly.

I saw two young people playing chess

under a tree near a spring

And if it rains? I asked the girl

in a beautiful red dress

We don’t care about anything, she said

We are protected by the leaves

And if you are hungry? I asked the boy

We eat honey from the bees

And sweet acorns from the trees

And if you are thirsty? I asked them both

We drink water from the spring

And if someone wins?

We draw all the time

But you will run out of acorns

the spring can run dry

The woman looked at the man, then said

It's fine,

We will draw all the time

But the forest will disappear one day

I said, looking at them

The old woman looked at the old man

We don’t care about anything, she said

We will draw all the time.

Eventually you both will die,

nothing is forever

time...goes by

They seemed sunken in thoughts

for a while

The old man looked at me and said

It will be the same- as you saw

I assure you that

even then we will draw
