Das hat irgendwie Spaß gemacht :D Werde die Gedichte, die ich am schönsten fand, bei Instagram posten und zusehen wie meine Follower an Cringe sterben. It ain't much, but it's honest work.

Hermann Hesse hat mir beigebracht, dass Deutsch eine schöne Sprache sein kann.

Wirklich eine tolle Sammlung von wunderschönen Gedichten.
Vor allem von "Gestutzte Eiche" und "Voll Blüten" bin ich sehr angetan, aber auch die meisten anderen Gedichte sind sehr schön.
Die Themen der Gedichte sind relativ weit gefächert, oft geht es um die Natur, aber auch Themen wie Einsamkeit, Liebe und Glück werden in relativ vielen Gedichten angesprochen.
