by Franz Evers (1871 - 1947)

Froher Besitz
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wolken wehen übers Feld. 
Meine Ernte ist bestellt.  

Braune Frucht ist aufgespeichert; 
Alle Scheunen sind bereichert.  

Selig, wer vor Sturm und Nacht 
Seine Garben heimgebracht.  

Wolken wehen die Welt . . . 
Herz, mein Herz, du bist bestellt. 

Confirmed with Franz Evers, Der Halbgott, Leipzig: Kreisende Ringe, 1900, page 162. Appears in Leben
