The Weight Of A Sponge (By Meier) Comments

Poem Hunter sometimes puzzles me.Where did two of my previous comments go?

I must quote from this beautiful poem- - When seashells have to wash ashore When tides have to ebb and flow When April cherry trees must blossom fully The weight of a sponge Is a weight switched from the left hand to the right

Sponge is something which absorbs- -Though its surface appears plain, it has big space inside to absorb. Human mind has tremendous capacity like a sponge.It thinks, dreams and executes different roles at various point of our life. A wonderful poem, your translation made it possible for us to read Meier.

Clearly the poetess has a busy mind In weighing different thoughts ... good piece of poetry
