At the end of the path stands the abandoned green park bench under the tree. She often dreamed in its shade of the once light-filled space. She saw her mother walking again with a rose in hand. Her gaze directed into the distance, into the wonderful land beyond. Romantic, idyllic journeys through all seasons, sometimes cheerful and hopeful, sometimes contemplative and melancholic - this is what the 25 poems by Marion Joch tell about, but also about lost love, illness, and death. Fairy-tale sequences can be found alongside a glimpse into the sad abysses of society. A collection of poems full of deep emotions.
