“A CHILD IN THE HALLWAY”
by Leticia Pontoni.

In the hallway

Of that old house,

Dreams a little child.

She is sitting, and alone,

She asks and imagine,

She plays and speaks,

With some characters,

That she invents.

In the hallway

Of that old house

A girl is dreaming.

She hears, discusses,

Sings and amuses.

She is only a child

With six years old.

In the hallway

Of that old house,

Dreams the little child.

But that little child

Grow up.

Today is a woman

And the old dreams,

She never reached it.

Where are that dreams?

In the hallway

Of that old house,

Dreams a little child.

How many dreams has she lost?

Maybe, if we look for it

They will be there, yet.

In the hallway

Of that old house,

Dreams a little child.
