This is where the little elves
Cuddle down to hide themselves;
Into fluffy beds they creep,
Say goodnight, and go to sleep.

Give back to the earth what you got from the earth
But in the end, there's already a beginning
Hidden in death is new life
One sunflower will fall down.

When we came home together
We found the inside weather.
All of our love unended
The quiet light demanded,
And we gave, in a look
At yellow walls and open book.
The deepest world we share...........

A Wind that rose
Though not a Leaf
In any Forest stirred
But with itself did cold engage
Beyond the Realm of Bird –
A Wind that woke a lone Delight

Easter lilies bloom in July
A Chinese peacock butterfly is coming swinging slowly,
It is reminiscent of a long time ago

For sweetest things turn sourest by their deeds;
Lilies that fester smell far worse than weeds.
