Once Upon a Time Poems

Edelweiss

          Edelweiss in the Alps blooms through the snow


Do not be afraid
to bloom in the snow,
white smiling with yellow,
like Edelweiss
on the highest peaks.

Even for the lowest,
nothing is beyond reach
and people get closer

by wanting.

The taste of lightning,
the smell of thunder,
the touch of wonder...enjoy.

Let your eyes dance
in the direction of stars,
for that’s how
you reach to love

by searching.
