Amerika

Am Meer da liegt Amerika,
ganz weit weg und doch mir nah.

Starke Städte, weites Land,
seltsam fremd, trotzdem bekannt.

Vonwegen naiv, vielleicht deshalb schnell,
unbefangen, freundlich und hoch spirituell.

Es ist ein Kontinent mit Seele,
ob ich mich deshalb danach sehne?
 

 

America

America you live close the sea
far away but close to me.

Strong cities large farms,
oddly strange but well known.

Reckless naive perhaps therefore so quick,
freely, friendly and full of high spirit.

You are a continent with soul
is this, why I am looking for you?


 

My poem America had been published worldwide in German and English at the journal "Poems of the World" Volume 13 #4 by Elma Photikarm, IL, USA, which appears quaterly.
