I know, I know my friend – a rose
is only a plant
that sings in the moist dawn,
but at the same time it is also a luminous
star.
And the sound of a violin is only oscillating air,
only a number,
I know, I know my friend –
But for the poet it can also be a fragrant
flower,
a flower that illuminates the sky
above the stalks of darkness,
or just any flower,
after all.
Stefan Themmerson
