Humor

Anger tried to kill Humor.
Finally Humor said, "That's a joke, isn't it?"

Broken Mirror

by Ingrid Prohaska

"The Broken Mirror"
Jean-Baptiste Greuze

The mirror broken
a smash on my soul
a chapter closed

Scars on my face
a tear
just one
the last one

Then she turned into stone.

Part of this Living Meadow

by Ingrid Prohaska

"The Garden in Flower" Claude Oscar Monet

I'm not a rose
nor am I a daisy
I'm not a tulip
nor am I an aster
you can not see me
but I am here
part of this living meadow

I'm not tall
nor do I have a special scent
my color is undefined
and I'm even not sure
if there is a tribe for me
but I am here
part of this living meadow

You don't see me
and you won't miss me
but I am here.
And I want to bloom
with all my power
till the moment I die
to make this place
a beautiful one
because I want to be
part of a living meadow

My name?
Hm, I'm not sure
if there is a name for me
I usually say
well, it's just me
with the strong wish to be
part of a living meadow
