by Franz Evers (1871 - 1947)

Blütenflug
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Über den Wiesen spielt ein Falterheer ..
heiss und zitternd glänzen die Blumen. 
Horch! eine ferne Melodie 
und die stillen silbernen Wolken... 
Sommer, Sommer, halt an! 
Sieh, meine Seele weiss nicht mehr 
was Glück und Schmerz bedeuten 
und flattert in lauter Schönheit, 
ein seliger Schmetterling... 

Confirmed with Franz Evers, Paradiese, Leipzig, Verlag "Kreisende Ringe" (Max Spohr), 1897, page 15.
