5696 The wildflowers bloomed again

The wildflowers bloomed again 

And I still wait for 

The consubstantiation 

Of your tenderness in me.

And so, this way 

my days passed, 

The planets 

Continued their dance, 

The tail of the comet 

Once again crossed the sky 

And the constellations 

Of Andromeda and Orion 

Were seen once again 

From the same 

Observation point.

Flowery springs 

And scorching summers passed, 

Endless leaves 

Fell in autumn 

And winters brought 

Their desolating cold.

My hope in your promise 

Remained fresh 

Despite time 

And pain, 

But life moves on, 

And the longing 

Of my mature eyes 

Can no longer endure 

Another day without your love.

For so long, I longed 

To be free of loneliness, 

To smile again 

And feel once again 

In my chest the drum 

That beats like the flutter 

Of a sparrow's wings.
