A piglet and its parent were trying to cross the road
Avoiding headlights and harsh tyres
So silly of them, don’t they know better
– than to cross the roads
“But they do know better.
If it’s not the red of blood they see here on the road,
they have witnessed, what happens to their friends from the pen”
– you said
And there you were again
A minute of quite, in a loud shouting world
I loved you a little more in that minute
I loved the piggies a little more in that minute
In that moment, I was more than I’d ever been
And then I thought, with all my heart and all of my soul
“Thanks again for saving me. Someday, I’ll save you too.”
That’s a story from long ago
And I never saved you as much, or maybe not at all,
as you have saved me – then and after
“You are the finest, loveliest, tenderest and most beautiful person I have ever known
– and even that is an understatement.” – F. Scott Fitzgerald
