"I have always wanted to fly… to wave my arms and take off. After all, it is such happiness — to wave my arms, to float in the sky and smile," wrote Roman Sef. Only children always dream of such...
things. Adults quickly stop thinking about the impossible and forget many things: how fun it is to play with a sunbeam, that Santa Claus lives in every refrigerator, and that one should go fishing not for the fish, but to look around and turn one’s head.
However, there are rare individuals among adults who, growing up, continue to remain children at heart. Such was the poet Roman Sef. How else can one explain that he was interested in the very questions that little curious ones ask their parents every day: where did the shadow go? Why did spring come in spring? Why is the wind not cheerful?
The cloudless world of childhood for Roman Sef's poems was created by the artist Vera Khlebnkova. She filled each page with various small details, like children's "secrets" — water lilies and dragonflies, snowflakes and leaves, bees, frogs, and birds. Both the artist and the poet know well that it is precisely thanks to such details that childhood becomes happy. Contents:
