Edelweiss
The touch
trembles the gaze hovers
with rustling
leaves it rests on the shoulder
the lips
tremble, red raspberry
they went out on
the path of love's plan.
The soul has
borne flowers of emotions
frozen image
around them all
the rain of
smiles has sunk
the awkward gaze
looks at the bracelet.
A sweet south
wind arrives
with traveling
skies descends
a heart pierced
by the arrows of the gaze
it breathes
quickly, it spreads beats and noise.
Budding
branches, they bend at the edge
they betray
impatient love
silently sprout
like a tear
naked in the
forest shadow, they are not seen.
Penetrating
liquids, perfumes overflow
the horses wait,
they ride
other unknown
lands they behold
the beginning of
eternity they guess.
Balloon
I found myself
on earth
asking the sky
why am I so
small …
how did I end up
here…
A colorfull
balloon follows me
in the sunlit
sky
My root stuck in
the earth
my gaze on the spirit
of God.
If I enter the
flow of the wind
a black
whirlwind, white lightning
maybe it will
take me further
to the afterlife
celebration…
