Orchid Wedding – 17th wedding anniversary – Two blue goblets full of love awaken new courage in the refugee!

Meditation and Wedding Prayer

All the thoughts of the heart I unwaveringly and anxiously unite into one, as I can attest that I have been thinking of them for a long time, with singing with faithful courage the pure, the good. I thank you, you senses, for the friendly teaching that I love you, that I am busy nurturing your embers and that I desire to praise your darling's honor in new ways.

Yes, I long for the noble, the beautiful. O say, whoever describes the hours of salvation, if they were overcome by tender instinct, mine would and would remain! How she lifts me from suffering to joy. To paradise love, sweetness! I hurry, and the mirror of life flees forever in a wild flood. The longing in the distance never rests, and weeping memory looks back, there new destinies look out of a flower.

Two blue chalices full of love awaken new courage in the refugee. That he may see life young again. The mind has rediscovered the prospect, it sees reflected in the clear stream. The doubly lovely image of changing life, the surface rests and swells in deep hours when passion unbridles drunkenness. And love reveals itself naked to the river.

Orchid Wedding

Love began in March, when my mind and heart fell ill. But when May, the green one, came. An end to all my mourning. It was probably three o'clock in the afternoon on the moss bench of the hermitage, which is hidden behind the linden tree, when I discovered my heart in her. The flowers were fragrant. In the tree the nightingale sang, but we hardly heard a single word of her song, we had many important things to talk about. We swore allegiance unto death. The hours passed, the sunset faded. But for a long time we sat and cried in the dark.
