***[Kõik sõbrauksed enesele naelutand]

Kõik sõbrauksed enesele naelutand,
ma tulen, hoolimata kõigest olnust
suurt võõrast teed, mis puudeta ning kaevuta,
ja pähe pilved pudenevad tolmuks.

Juus lehvib taevas nõelteta ning paeluta
ja aega jalgu kängitseda polnud.
Kas suudan sind veel praegu nõnda paeluda
vaid sellega, et jälle olen tulnud?

Kas jätkub mullegi su jälleleitud lembusest
ja silmist, mis ehk muutunud on ammu?
Ent siiski, lämbununa tulekutee lämbusest,

ma tulen – kahetsedes iga sammu.
Näen äkki sind. Kaob tuulde trots ja uhkus –
su pilgus sulan merekarva suhkruks.

Leelo Tungal is a poet, prose writer and translator. She has written more than 70 books for children and young people, both prose and poetry, and 12 poetry collections for adults.

Tungal made her debut at the age of 18 during the "golden sixties". Her early works are characterized by a bright sense of nature rich in nuances. Angsts and hopes, as well as a sensitive and immediate sharing in social changes all arise in Tungal's poems published in the late 80s. In the early 90s, hesitations and sometimes dark moods are expressed in her poetry collections. In the 2000s, Tungal has moved towards a more distanced perspective and an analytic tone.
