These Simple Things

A watermelon – masterpiece of God,
A cup of coffee – bitter taste of wisdom,
An autumn leaf – a golden dying spot
on the face of Earth before the winter freedom.

A bloody rose – shadow of my love,
Ripe, juicy apple – symbol of temptation,
A smiling maiden – sigh of flying dove,
Your lustful kiss – burning inspiration.

These simple things are miracles of life,
They make us happy in this sad existence,
Merciless destiny is cutting like a knife
Shy morn illusions rising in the distance.
