Notes About The Poem

- Heaven's Contrasts -

- Sunrise 

Nature's artwork painted with authentic brushes
the palette hanging on a nail at the door
The painted areas melt completely with the paper,
and become one with it
Purple: a color of prestige, nobility and majesty
A little simplified you can say
By opening yourself for the image
you get an opportunity to get in touch
with a different dimension

... and Sunset
 
Everything from heaven and paradise to love, sunset and ocean dunes
The hour from day to night creates a very special atmosphere
Some find it melancholy at the fall of the sun
The beautiful light fades away the day, a bitter taste
Over a carafe of sangria, enjoy the silence
The longing for love, with eyes closed everything is easy
Tomorrow, tomorrow a whole new day
Beautiful is God's heaven, a gleaming link which is held by angels
