Der Wasserschaden

(Ein Gedicht von Dieter Kermas )

.

Das Wasser floss, ganz ohne Pause,

aus einem Rohrbruch bei Herrn Krause.

Der Klempner das Gesicht verzieht,

als er den Wasserschaden sieht.

Als er nun die Rechnung schätzt,

ist Herr Krause recht entsetzt.

Er wird blass, und er spricht:

»Ich bin Dichter, Geld hab ich nicht.«

Der Klempner sieht den Dichter an:

»Ich werd jetzt gehen, guter Mann.

Viel Arbeit muss ich noch verrichten,

und Sie, Sie fangen an zu dichten.«

Dieter KermasDieter Kermas, CaliforniaGermans Guest Author and a true Berliner, turned to writing after he retired from his profession as an engineer. Family and friends urged him to document his many experiences during his childhood in wartime Germany. This made for a collection of various essays which have been published here at CaliforniaGermans. Apart from his childhood memories he is also sharing some of his short stories and poems on CaliforniaGermans. Dieter Kermas, who loves to write, is currently working on his first novel. Some of his work has been included in anthologies.
