Yellow tulips on my table
The sky is gray,
the lands are white
With yellow tulips on my table
I’m laughing
because the contrast
is hot and cold at the same time
A ray of sunshine in the sleeping house…
but I prefer the gray and white enveloping me
And leaning forwards on the table
the flowers nodd and laugh with me
They whisper: “spring is nearing”
whether I’m ready or not
Whilst stronger rays
transform the house
smiling knowingly
“Rejoice in the sunshine
child of winter!”
