Morning Again…

A tear is the most expensive pearl

Søren Kierkegaard

Morning again

I wake up lethargic

with the word:

"I wish, I desire..."

And a chain of pearls

I put around the neck

Like a heavy tear

but one

I would take off

I Bow…

Without suffering, one does not understand happiness

Fiodor Dostojewski

I bow

to you

your Pine highness

and to you

my slender Birch

when animals and people

fail me,

through the bark

to the heart of the trees I knock

I give my hand

to the rustling branches

and the trunk I embrace

fondly

In the cloudy morning

and rainy evening

with you

I cuddle

Painfully

Impossible…

To Friends

Friends are like silent angels

who lift us when our wings

forget how to fly

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Impossible

will become possible

and a dream

may come to life

when these banes

malicious creations

will not crawl out

like a snake from under the leaves

Everything

will become simple

and easy

when a single link

will not break up

A chain of hearts

those kind

those tender

will fulfil the dream

and the day will come

again
