by Friedrich Marx (1830 - 1905)
Dein Bild
Language: German (Deutsch)
Vom Wassergrunde helle grüßt mich [das]1 Sterngebild, wenn flutend auch die Welle es immer überquillt. So ruht im Seelengrunde mir Deine Bildgestalt, was bunt auch durch die Runde an ihr vorüberschwallt.
Note: This is the text as found in the Poesie-Album of Helene Simon, wife of Paul

and changed "das" above to "Dein" (footnote 1). The above text might not be the exact original form.
