Notes About The Poem

- New Spring -

                                         "My heart still feels
                               those times spent in the warmth "
                                  We have a common project,
                                         a common enemy
                                    in an emergency situation 

                                         Corona virus controls
                                      absolutely everything now

                                              To appreciate
                                   what we actually have is basic

                                  In April we should enjoy spring,
                              the flowers and the warmth of the sun
                                        Lilacs - fragrant beauty

                                  Focus on what's important to you
                                       ... in this magical season
                                       The birds are still singing
                                            Keep your balance
                                         on the carousel of life
