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.

Napping is for Napoli... when I get there

So little time left
to hail hello,
to bid good-bye,
why waste it here in bed,
dazzled from dreams
snared by nightmares.

They insistently whisper lies.

Better to get up, go out,
do whatever must be done.

It's in the doing,
not the don't-ing
that keeps a life well-spun.

New beginnings

I will ease
into this new beginning,
my mother gone,
my brain soon to follow.
The roads lead ever on.
Only the dead are left behind.
And even them...
they haunt fresh memories.
I'll search cold skies
to find which paths now open.
So closed for so long,
it will not matter.
First flight out,
come find me in my seat.
I'm going somewhere.

Honeybuns

There once was a lady named Bunny
who lived with her bestest friend Honey;
         they made cookies and baked
         fudgy chocolate cheesecake;
together each new day dawned sunny.

When Harry met Larry he knew
that soon they would have a big crew
         with Barbie and Bob,
         Rebecca and Rob,
two puppies, five kitties and you!

They all planned a picnic come Fall
a big flashy fun rainbow Ball
         with pastries galore
         and popcorn and smores.
But bunnies and crows ate it all!

Ah... David *Blush*

There once was a lady named Alice
who lived in a white marble palace
with fine art to impress
like young David's broad chest;

she lamented over his phallus.

And it's companion poem:

There once was a valet named Dallas
who worked in a white marble palace
with fine art to impress
like young David's broad chest;

he sobbed over David's wee phallus

Cold,
but bright,
clarity
in cobalt light
streaming through stained glass.

Jump out of bed! Alas...

It's Wednesday morning,
time for coffee,
breakfast, yay!
shopping

Emerald treasure

Crimson blushes
in pink or white florets,
plucked for their vernal fragrance
as children search
through fresh mown grass
for four fingers attached to a petiole.

How hard to stoop these days,
and not fall over, smacked by wet cold ground.
Oh, to be able to get up in a single bound,
knees stained with wealth and happiness,
as nimble fingers twirl in admiration
at Fate grasped with one hand.

Fragments

at cloudy dawn
the lion still sleeps
one eye open

[179.2a]

Behind grey clouds
the hidden sun works
on spring

[179.2b]

Do not ask permission
to do the right thing
for yourself

For others —
always ask first

[179.2c]

On the tongue
a taste of cinnamon
no sight, no sound

Saint Regis remembered

I have never stayed in Lake Placid,
a misnomer encased in snow and ice,
a place to drive though on the way
to better vistas, calm cool nights.

Spitfire, placid, hoped-for breeze,
summer ease, bluegills caught, Sunfish
sailing, a dingy's ride through golden
lilies, a lake remembered for 50 years.

Naw Ruz 179

The Wheel of Time
fulfills its duty
to rule the Moon and tides.

No need for posturing,
it opens up this year,
cloud shrouded and shy.

It'll get better, I whisper,
to the emptiness
and to those who've died.
