Today, from a hand of a child
I received a bouquet of wild flowers
Her eyes sparkled like stars in the sky.
Her smile was shiny and soft
like a sunflower under the sun.
“Love is coming to you!”, she said.
Right the way I set the bouquet
In a porcelain vase on my nightstand.
At mid-night somebody placed a kiss
on my chick. I felt breeze of wings
over my lips. I felt shimmering lights
over my face and a song in my year.
My, flowers! Oh, Dear!
They open their buds
and a cloud of fairies
flapped their wings;
Dancing and gliding
with their glowing lanterns
- Swirl after swirl, turn after turn!
In the morning He came
with 300 roses and dazzling ring
asking, indeed
“Would you marry me?”
