Pour Coraline, Antoine et Célestine, voyageurs des mers profondes Diego
in a little place
where little hearts are born
she arrived with her eyes wide open
sweet blue crystals mortals mourn
in a little place beyond the sea
she brought to us the joy
of flowers blooming before your eyes
of birds singing above the sky
where all small things meet way up high
in a little place where stars go to sleep
she knew the secret that ancient stones keep
where day and night pour their waters
into deep pools of dust and matter
she had to depart with the whales
for a long migration across an ocean
where we can't follow her
but as it happens with all small things
she had the wisdom of the golden snail
she left behind a scented trail
for animals and plants alike
for life
to bloom
