Kettle, Pond and Lake Offer the Tulips

She first raised her right eyebrows a little
A wave arose in the green lake water
In the left eyebrows too then a whistle
An oval pond sprouted up in laughter

The two pink fingers on her dancing lips
Two blue pigeons fly in the purple air
His eyes smile while in the kettle he dips
The tea leaves the two are going to share

The happy kettle greets them with the steam
A warm scent of life in the lake and pond
The golden light splashes into the stream
Of love blending the black rose with the blonde

The kiss rich in the smell of the keen lips
They bring out in the starlight the tulips
