a piece of sugar -
the horse’s lips take
my heart

calm autumn day
a child jumps to catch
the falling leaf

a chance encounter -
calling our children
by each other’s names

thunder burst –
my son and I scream
„mama!“

full moon
my sleeping son’s hand
on my heart

strong wind –
the ground gets firmer
underfoot

spring cleaning –
the toddler pokes his finger
into the dusty sunray

melting snow
all in motley baby vests
house by the pier
