Rilke, Rainer Maria
...w on the sundials
and let loose the wind in the fields.
Bid the last fruits to be full;
give them another two more southerly days,
press them to ripeness, and chase
the last sweetness into the heavy wine.
Whoever has no house now will not build one

and wander the avenues, up and down,
restlessly, while the leaves are blowing.
