Himmelschlusselchen…
My favourite word in German
Julia,
your Mutti taught me it
Julia,
and it sounds perfect
Julia,
just like the flower.
Far from me
Julia,
in the silence I see your lettering
Julia,
Mutti ist die Beste,
Julia,
und gute Freunde sind immer da…
In your chair
Julia,
in your bed
Julia,
in your garden
Julia,
my own Himmelschlusselchen…
small and brave and opening hearts to
Luft und Liebe.
