L'aura del Campo

by Kåre Enga in Montana

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.

This certainly cheered me up! I hope it did the same for you.

I relate -- and appreciate the reminder to let sunshine save me!

It needs tweeking. Short lines can be a headache; little room for maneuvering. It's got a cadence, so; yes, it could be a song. The 'conflict' is ending on one long sad fading note. I'm conflicted as to what I do next.

So much pain conveyed, effectively with such sharp short lines. Nice.

It kind of feels to me like a song. I kept hearing music with it.

Nice! I like how stoically you addressed the conflict as if a slight skirmish.

Nice! I like the title a lot, too! The push and pull of love reinforced by couplets here!

Cappucine It'll need a nedit (an ewt ... a newt). But it's great just to write it out for now. The cadence (basically 6/6/6/4) isn't perfect.

Unfortunately we have 'relationship' issues (you probably think this song is about you, don't you ). That said, use what the Muse gifts.

Nice poem. Like the rhythms & rhymes, with their effective irregularities.

Peace until the rise of dawn 1

A solivagant2
seeks a night 3
better than one thousand months

sleeps till dawn.

  1. We have indeed revealed this (Message) in the Night of Decree:
  2. And what will explain to thee what the Night of Decree is?
  3. The Night of Decree is better than a thousand months.
  4. Therein come down the angels and the Spirit by Allah's permission, on every errand:

3 Lailat al Qadr, the Night of Power, marks the night in which the Qur'an was first revealed to the Prophet Muhammad by Allah. Muslims regard this as the most important event in history, and the Qur'an says that this night is better than a thousand months (97:3), and that on this night the angels descend to earth.

Comforting Sophie (taboo) [113]

Comforting Sophie

I can't leave her side;
Sophie's my eyes;
"Eternal Night"
they call me.

She whimpers and snuggles;
that's all I can do.
Her ears must hurt
more than mine.

Year after year,
the same celebration,
every July
until she died.

She's deaf now,
stuffed with cotton filling;
when I cannot sleep
she comforts me.

Once upon a time in Ontario [112] (10 lines, limerick)

Once upon a time in Ontario

There once was an asshole from Guelph
who hid behind books on the shelf
who would jump out to frighten
the librarian from Brighton
who blamelessly pissed on himself.

Till one day some fine fellow elves,
who highly respected themselves,
decided this was tragic
so they stripped him of magic
and now he's an elf on a shelf.
