My look blue as the sky Is as calm as water in the sun…
““My look blue as the sky Is as calm as water in the sun. It’s that way, blue and calm, Because it doesn’t question and it doesn’t get surprised... If I did question or got surprised New flowers wouldn’t bloom in the meadows And nothing would change in the sun in a way to make it more beautiful... (Even if new flowers bloomed in the meadows And the sun turned more beautiful, I would sense fewer flowers in the meadow And would find the sun more ugly... Because everything’s like it is and so it’s what it is, And I accept, and I’m not even thankful, So I don’t seem to be thinking about it...)””
