“هر کجا هستم،باشم
آسمان مال من است.
پنجره،فکر،هوا،عشق،زمین مال من است.
چه اهمیت دارد؟
گاه اگر می رویند
قارچ های غربت؟
من نمی دانم
که چرامیگویند:اسب حیوان نجیبی است،کبوترزیباست؟
وچرادرقفس هیچ کسی کرکس نیست؟
گل شبدرچه کم ازلاله ی قرمزدارد؟
چشمهارابایدشست،جوردیگربایددید.
واژه ها رابایدشست.
واژه بایدخودباد،واژه بایدخودباران باشد.
چترهارابایدبست،
زیرباران بایدرفت”
― سهراب سپهری, صدای پای آب
