STILLS

Spring unfurls her ribbon blue,
makes it stream in vernal breezes;
sweet, familiar fragrance pleases
with a touch the land anew.
Violets, dream-bound,
will be appearing soon.
- Hark, from far a silver harping sound!
Spring, it must be you!
You I have been hearing.

Eduard Mörike (1804 - 1875)
