NAKED ROSE

Nothing can hide
Your pure moon
Light --- transparent
Blood singing
The ancient 
Love song

You blossom
In every field
In a man’s heart
You lay with a nightly
Wish and wake deep
In earth’s longing

Maybe that is love
So simple, so sunny
With a spring
Breeze singing
The happy notes
Untranslatable
To human ears
