Rise in the morning

The light climbs as if it were growing wisely. Forsythia clears heat from the soil

The light climbs as if it were growing wisely.

Forsythia clears heat from the soil

standing upright

at the window, handing out golden pills.

I feel by being in the morning light

A kind of grace

I am dull and sickly because of my foolishness, and I rise in the morning countless times

afterwards

Have the simple desire to

To say good morning to you.

Darling, I want to open my eyes every day

I want to say to you: Good morning.

My dearest

I would like someone to write me a letter

Beginning with: My dearest

Even if it is followed by a blank space

That would be my dearest

Blank
