La tarde equivocada se vistió de frío. Detrás de los cristales, turbios, todos los niños, ven convertirse en pájaros un árbol amarillo. La tarde está tendida a lo largo del río. Y un rubor de manzana tiembla en los tejadillos.

The afternoon mistakenly got dressed in cold. Behind the misted windows, all the children see a yellow tree turn into birds. The afternoon is stretched along the river. And a red flush of apple trembles on the rooftops.
