This particular poem comes from a chapter in the "book" where the main character, Christoph meets a young man that he finds attractive... hope you enjoy
Are
you like me,
Therefore the hours
gleam
If I were to say to you
You are a dwelling where
strawberries
Sweep through your
name
As if budding shrubs
remind me
Of some spring of water so
cool, so clear
Twilight rain embraces
your leaves
Which are stirred by a
dainty wind
It is where you transpire
in verdant moonlight
You are the lily, the
aster, the white trillium
Even the viburnum, by
all merits mine
The frosty star in the pasture
sky,
The snowstorm still
arriving
From its earthward
voyage, here there is
No snow but I dreamt the
snow was you,
You come to be my night
You take on the
dimensions of sleep,
The silhouette of sleep
becomes you
In
those dreams you fall from the sky
With numerous blossoms
Poetries spill from your
mouth
In waves, your lips
taste like the sea,
But the seas have flown
away
Because of loving you,
home is nowhere
Therefore you are my
shelter
The song of any Eden we
can mention
