“At the end of the night awaits the white morning: showered in sunlight.”
Gerrit Achterberg, Snow Passage

“Since it has quietly began to snow,
new distances have awakened within me.”
Gerrit Achterberg, Snow Passage

“There are tones so high
And so low
That human ears
Cannot hear them.
It's possible, living
In forest or hedge
That birds hide from us
Singing until the morning.”
Gerrit Achterberg
