Слайд 11Sometimes I think
Sometimes I think,
What I did,
For that not
ashamed before the face of Nothingnesses.
But shunned all around: Enemies, friends.
I sowed the good flowers;
I was a shepherd - Protected from the darkness Confused spirit.
My voice sang amidst the dumbness, But the world was deaf.
That it? The whole report?
And the, that the gloom
Burned and stood at the gate,
A good sign?
Everyone listens, all stores, all waiting...
So be it.
