Dear GeraldGee, every morning I find in my computer the present of a poem. Today it was by the Romantic Joseph Freiherr von Eichendorff, and I'll try an (utterly imperfect) translation.
Moon Night
It was as if Heaven had quietly kissed the Earth, that she in blossoms' shimmer now had to dream of him.
The air went through the fields, the corn was waving gently, the woods were softly soughing, so starlit was the night.
And my soul spread far its wings, flew through the silent countryside, as if it were flying home.
So, are you OK?

I wish more surgeons would pay attention to that!
