In spring I enter summer through a sleep

This year I had two springs. I experienced one spring at home and saw trees blooming and grasses coming out of the ground. The other spring I experienced here, on the river bank.
By the river, I make a bed in an old wooden boat and go to sleep. I go to sleep at dusk and at dawn, because there is no night here. I lie down in the boat on a soft pillow and cover myself with a blanket.
White hares come from the forest to watch me sleep. They sit on the grass and watch my boat float down the river very, very slowly so as not to disturb my sleep.
