L'aura del campo

'é a lua, é a lua, na quintana dos mortos'
♣ Federico García Lorca ♣


Higgins Street Bridge, April 25th 2009, Missoula, Montana


L'aura del campo. A breeze in the meadow. So it began the last day of Spring, 2005; on the 16th day of the month of Light of the year 162. This is a supplement to my daily journal written to a friend, my muse; notes I do not share. Here I will share what the breeze has whispered to me.

But only God can make a tree

Before the blight killed them all,
the mighty elm with arms outstretched
vaulted cathedrals above her avenues
Spring-covered with masses of winged seeds
and hanging baskets of orange orioles
in the cooling shade of Summer,
the golden shade of autumn's light,
last color fading from our sight,
November's lingering whispers in it's hair
strong branches almost bare.
No fairer tree grew in all our realm,
soaring above us with arms outstretched
than the cathedrals of the mighty elm.

If I am to live

"If it was to be life, it would be passion", Leanne O'Sullivan

If I am to live, it must be with passion.
These shadows must find other places to hide
and the frightened child must leave the womb of denial
as stone numbness of ache and pain
washes away by flows of lava or water.
What dark tomb awaits, must wait a while longer.
Till passion plays out.
Till shadows return, humbled.
Till this lonely child rejoices in the dance of Life.
If I am to live,
let me embrace the light; at death,
let me be joyful to embrace the coming night.

© Kåre Enga (27.avril.2017) [174.57]
