SUNDAY'S STORY - Spring has arrived - Culture - Varese News
We had to celebrate the new season, and in our Showcase to Read all the stories paid homage to magnolias and peach blossoms, and some authors hadn't held back from associating the awakening of nature with that of the soul, bah... things like that happen in the best of families. It was necessary to raise the money anyway, the politicians couldn't hear us, and I don't know if you've ever noticed their ears, one is an assessor, and another is a councilor, and another is so advanced and popular in the party that he wants to become a member of parliament, and we sincerely wish it for him, if this is his wish we hope for him, as long as he doesn't do it for us... and their ears are big, it's part of the requirements, large pavilions to listen to the citizens, but if you look inside the eardrum there isn't one, they don't hear and they keep alive the conventional phrase according to which what goes in from one side comes out from the other, it's a single tunnel, from ear to ear, the words flow away like drops on marble... and there's no problem, we all have limits, but they don't admit it and when you ask them a question they answer yes, they always say yes, it doesn't cost them anything, and in fact they didn't even hear... and then another category that could help us was that of the merchants, but asking a merchant for money the least that can happen is that he answers... and what do I gain from it? And we have to love them, and how can we not love them, they need more than others, and let's give them a hand... they don't know the beauty of free action.... but in the town where time has stopped, the shopkeepers are not like that, they are special and they offer you their windows, and for the spring festival we filled them with magnolias and peach blossoms, and then now Martin Stigol has joined, he entertains the streets, he is not from these parts, but he has understood that his task is here, and he is not a missionary, he is just someone who is moved by the smile of a child, and these two elements put together are the reason why this year too, spring will arrive in the streets of the center. Martin is getting ready, and we will burn the old man, nature will bloom again, and everyone knows it, politicians and shopkeepers, everyone knows that a party together is worth more than money. C'est la vie.
