L'aura del Campo

by Kåre Enga 🇹🇭 Udon Thani

Rated: 13+ · Book · Personal · #982524

Online journal capturing the moment and the memory of moments. A meadow meditation.

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.

Love the 1st stanza. Succinct and to the point.

Wordsmitty ✍️ Thanks for stopping by. 40 words limits what can be conveyed, but that's the point of the challenge. By-the-way, Mark couldn't say green as a child, so 'gleen' it was.

A good, succinct bio using relationships. No one needs to know the details, but everyone understands what you mean.

QPdoll I pack my trauma and take it with me thinking I've left the unhappiness behind. It doesn't quite work that way. I know I'm learning a lot right now. Some of it isn't fun.

Yes, live, live, live!

Life is so short. I've learned that, but I don't know that I've learned to be happy where I'm at. I sometimes forget all the blessings I have and yearn for what I don't have.

~~ BKCompton ~~ even ~~ keeled It also provides some alliteration. So important for me to use poetic techniques. Only 40 words = 49-ish syllables.

That said... short poems/prose with restrictions forces the writer to become inventive with word choice and word order.

Short forms seem to suit my short attention span!

(...more alliteration... on purpose...)

🌸 pwheeler ~ love joy peace The big festivals begging for the Return of Rain are coming up next month. For now we snooze and try not to exert ourselves... the air is that bad. Chang Mai was #5 worse AQ in the world this week. Udon is bad. Weak sun, orange sun, grey pall... covers all.

April is the hot dry month. More analogous to August in Japan, I believe.

Thank you everyone. Now I just need to edit to correct rhythm!

Harlow Flick I consider hate and love to be two sides of passion and numbness and apathy to be their opposite.

🌸 pwheeler ~ love joy peace Somehow it flowed and was less than 50 words so it was easy to snip. There are many prompts that leave me gasping for air.

kingoffjer As soon as I had the image of a two-way highway I was good to go. Analogies must be obvious as 40 words doesn't allow for explanation. I was happy with this one. 1st person makes it more personal and in-your-face. Fortunately, it works with this piece.

Letter to Latter Day Liars [179.148] 40w

"That Book?"

Yeah, the one that tells lies about me.

That only shows one side of the conversation.

That misquotes me, misunderstands me, makes me the Bad Guy.

There was no problem before you wrote it.

There'll be none after...
