by Anna (Nuhn) Ritter (1865 - 1921)

Stille Zeit
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE
Die Tage rinnen leise hin . . .
Ein jeder bringt ein liebes Glück
Und eine liebe Sorge mit,
Und schau ich so den Weg zurück,
Den ich mit dir gegangen bin,
Da will es mir fast bange werden
Um so viel Seligkeit auf Erden. --

Confirmed with Anna Ritter, Befreiung. Neue Gedichte, Fünfte Auflage, Stuttgart: J.G. Cotta'sche Buchhandlung Nachfolger, 1900, page 20.
