Now known for hi Neue Sachlichkeit
with practical objectivity he gave his might

dainty darling blossoms~
are floating fluffy clouds
of ivory and petunia
hanging like empyrean jewels
'neath the vibrant skies
of turquoise and royal blue
fingers that wrinkled in snow
tightly holding those gems ~
like you hold my hands
as we dance ~
in unison with
the lovely melody
whispered by the breeze
rich sweet aroma~
lingering in the daylight
feeds our hungry heart
retelling old love stories
kept in each blossoming bud
