Her face and motion were so beautiful, and we were very young. She called me, I turned to see her and the poem was written in my soul then.


Roe Deer


When you see a face in the bark
of a furrowed poplar and realize
that this is only a dream,

When you put hands into a cold
river and see that your life
flows down the water,

When you see your destiny in a
dewdrop on a rose leaf:
that the soil will absorb you
or the sky will swallow you,

You will find a roe deer leaned
on the poplar tree
in the same river,
and a fairy tale.
