Very recently it came to my attention that Else Keren,
the friend of Selma Meerbaum also wrote poems in German,
which she self-published in Israel in a book called
"Dann ging ich über den Ponts des Arts".
The book is out of print and I only managed to get it
through inter-library loan.

I find the poems are very beautiful and because there are
quite a number of German speaking members of this list,
I will copy here some of the poems:

  Ich schöpfe meine Farben
  In die Wäldern de Karpaten
  Und weinte sie in die trübe Seine
 

                                            Bunte Einsamkeit

                                        Ich male
                                        meine bunten Traume
                                        auf den dunklen Flachen
                                        wo die Nachte einander suchen
                                        und die Strassen einander
                                        fliehen

                                        Ich male
                                        meine bunten Traume
                                        auf hellen Flachen
                                        wo die Tage einander finden
                                        und die Hauser zustimmend
                                        schweigen

                                        Ich male sie
                                        bunter und bunter
                                        sie vertuschen die Wehen
                                        der Nacht
                                        sie übertauben das Schweigen
                                        des Tages
