1. Once in a while (life gives us)

De vez en cuando la vida~J.M. Serrat

Every once in a while,
life kisses us full in the mouth
And opens up in color like an atlas,
and we feel ourselves in good hands.

She takes our proper measure,
and matches our stride
pulls a rabbit out of a hat
and we become happy as children
when school lets out.

Every once in a while
life drinks coffee with us
and becomes so beautiful, that it's a pleasure to see.
She lets her hair lose and invites us
up on the stage.

Every once in a while
she offer herself in full
and grants gifts so slippery
we must walk on tip-toes
to keep from breaking the spell.


Every one in a while
life pulls out the paint brushes
we get goosebumps, and words fail
to describe what she offers
to those that that know how to use them.

And every once in a while
Life plays a joke on us
and we wake up without knowing
what happened; sucking our thumbs
sitting on a pumpkin.
