Christmas - Joachim Ringelnatz
The Christmas season,
and a simple happiness scatters beautiful flowers of the past on the threshold
through candlelight,
mildly, like the scent of the forest, ringing with love.
Hand clings to hand in a tight circle,
and the old song of God and Christ
trembles through souls and proclaims quietly,
that the smallest world is the greatest.
