A Little Surprise

A Little Surprise

It surprises me
When I walk by the cemetery
A lovely gravestone I see
I stop and read what’s written
And there I learn a lesson:
What actually inside is hidden.

It surprises me
When I walk by the clear sea
A lovely image of mine I see
I stop and read what’s inside
And I discern an icon:
What actually means an evil pride.

It surprises me
When I walk by a city
A lovely one called Enemy Free
I stop and tread what’s inside
And I remember those lovely tombs:
What actually this country combs.
