Maria Barbara Korynt - and I will wait

quietly and sadly
then again empty gardens
the park also emptied

sometimes
somebody willgo this way
taking a short-cut

home he is going along the lane
is collecting yellowed leaves
will be pretending flowers

the autumn so quickly
too quickly came
I will wait on 'after the winter'

if only spring has come
