Like Young Love

Wie junge Liebe / Like young Love / Como joven amor    				

Bunte Freuden im Frühling
Wildblumen und frisches Gras
Sie übertreffen sich im Leuchten
Wie junge Liebe


Colorful delights in spring
Wild flowers and fresh grass
They surpass in brilliance
As a young love does


Colorido delicias de primavera
Flores silvestres y hierba fresca
Ellos superan en brillo
Como un amor nuevo

I've just posted our poem, Gert, with mine first as you wished : ) If you post it now too, I'll correct my mistakes with the German and Spanish LOL Thanks again for working with me, love from Jack

I'll email the poem to you, to check I've placed the German and Spanish words in the right places - hope that's OK? : ) Jack

Such beautiful imagery, Gert. I hope your hand and arm are feeling much better. Glad you liked the poem and thanks so much for translating it. I think I've put it all in the right places, but I'm not 100% sure. I think only one of us has to post it anyway and declare that we wrote it together - would you like to do the honours? Thanks again for partnering me -it's been great fun : ) Love from Jack. For longer messages, you could use Soup Mail - I only recently activated mine.

Gert, I was telling Jack how much your poems are helping me learn Spanish. I may never learn to speak it, but thanks to you, I am definitely learning to understand more of it when written. Your poem reminds me of a play I was in as a teen, "Of Poems, Youth and Spring." Beautifully written. Please let me know when you post the tanka you are working on for the collaboration. Love, Carolyn
