A letter of Daughter to Mother

And again, mamma, I say
that I miss you.

Now I am writing to you
and crying.

Mamma, I miss your warm
and tender hands.

Mamma,
I miss your loving eyes.

Driven to despair,
in the light of a vision
I turn into a dove.

I become so free as a bird
in a blissful motion.

With a flaming ardour
I soar to the clouds.

Neglecting all frontiers
in a high flight
I rush to the west.

But in a moment...
I fall down
in the abyss of despair:

that was only a vision!
