Sibylle von Olfers
book "Story of the Root Children"

probably soon be spring ...", the spring with its colorful flowers comes, the Summer shows up with his hot days of autumn with its winds and storms, so back to the beginning of winter root of each child makes its way into the arms of Mother Earth.
Mother Earth knitting diligently -

perhaps only after the root children
but after the first flower children of the year
...
