If
you want to learn about tenderness
look, learn ... feel.
Such a clear day in autumn
will never be lost to you.
Colorful
abundance, beauty and light
last flowers in front of a glowing sky.
The impression of this wonderful world
hold on to it and take it with you
when winter begins
in his tender silence.
When
summer passes
live the fall
in a more mature form
with different notes
and changed colors
Red berries on bushes
dewdrops like precious tears.
the ground still warmed by the last rays of the sun
The
flowers are hanging their heads
brushed by the first frost.
Trees blazing colorfully in all shades
way higher in the shining blue
the last birds migrate to their
warm winter quarters
I look up
and want to fly with them.
When
it will soon become colder
our need for harmony, for warmth and quietude increases.
The first frost goes through me
oh.... so cold
slowly the fear creeps up
I could freeze to death in winter.
Hesitant
hope begins
and I feel
the warm wind of spring
close my eyes
hold on to it and take it with me
when winter begins
in his tender silence.
Fall 1998
