When I was a kid no taller than three apples br I spoke quite hard to look man br and kept repeating : I know , I know , I know , I know. br br It was in the beginning, I was spring . br Then when I turned 18 I said : br This is it This time I know for sure . br Today , looking back to the past br see the ground on which I have walked hundreds of times br and I realize that we still do not know how it rotates . br 25 years already knew everything br love the scent of roses , life, money ... br Oh yes, love. I got to know it from all sides. br Fortunately I was not like my friends br can be said that there was bread in me. br In mid- life, I learned something else. br What I learned fits in 4-5 words: br The day that someone loves you is wonderful . br It could not be said better - br just wonderful . br That is what continues to surprise me br me, who am in the autumn of life : br forget so sad nights br but never one only gentle morning . br When I was young, I always wanted to say I know br but the more I was looking for , still less understood . br Now when the clock chimed 60 br I'm at the window , watching and wondering . br Now I know . I know I never knew. br Life , love, money , friends and roses ... br You never know neither sound nor color of things. br That's all I know. But I know it.
