Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.

Enga mellom Fjella




Sentinel

         Marked
                   as if you own me
I bow before the Bitterroots
and just like you
                   my rocky soil, my withered grass
                   lays prey to the empty sky.

I knew this way once

In dense fog,
you stand, out-of-focus,
beyond a tunnel of warming green,
a phantom of a former life,
down a path
I've not forgotten,
fearful to follow again.

This way to nether worlds,
this border sundering life from death,
mere illusions we must believe.

Should I find you,
will we fondle fingers.
Or will you fling a spell like last time,
and will I forget again.

Love me, love me not

Dandelion clocks enticed
the child: let go and fly

to where another child smiled back.
Would you love me? Could I?

No answer came. We turned away.
We did our chores, too shy,

then slogged through years of working,
forever asking, why?

As thinning hair and aches and pains
now beg a nap they sigh,

May my parting lips praise he
who'll hold me as I die.

"Offspring of Oblivion"

You see crooked twigs
or tangled neurons,
old crones
and wizened wizards,
embraced in war.

Do you see my cooling touch,
my ermine blanket
comforting all?

Call me Snow,
Offspring of Oblivion,
Brother of Frost and Frozen Fog,
cousin to Salt Spray. So...

Know:
I bring you surcease from your struggles,
sing you winter's lullabies,
encase you with my cold.

Seabird

My wings of joy give flight,
refuse to land,
an unabating cross of albatross
and attributes.

K.E. 22.february.2020.

Pensive with imagery? It does seem to have rhythm. A juxtaposition but not a haiku! *Laugh*
