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.

Moss

I delight in moss greening
at the base of cold brick walls,
protected from the harsh cruel sun,
holding on to every drop of moisture.

I seek refuge in two rooms,
geraniums blooming by the windows,
books holding up thin walls,
each drop of inspiration from my Muse.

Rock-a-bye boat

Rock-a-bye baby,
rock-a-bye boat.
When the Earth freezes
you'll buy a new coat.
When the earth broils
you'll bake like a shoat.
So, rock-a-bye baby.
Rock-a-bye boat.

Return to me

Dust drifts over dull-white snow,
painting frozen ripples
shades of mustard, red or tan.

Blue skies bring no relief from drought
as brown fields thirst, and Silence
greets those who stumble by.

For The Land has spoken:
All Life returns to Me.

Not letting go...

Leaves and flowers come and go
but deep roots hold on tight.

Snags whisper ancient tales
to eagles tired of flight,

and to those who make it home at night
avoiding raptors eyes

as roots that once rived the rocks
still hold fast their prize.

hyacinth = regret

foxglove = protection

plumbago = hope


Regrets

Her hyacinths bloomed a month late
red-purple tears clinging to a stalk
small fleshy stars, fragrant,
almost cloying.

They couldn't bring her back,
not her fingers planting their bulbs,
not her waiting all winter long,
not her longing.

© Copyright 2022 Kåre Enga [178.337] (27.januar.2022)

Protection

Snug in the foxglove, the faeries hid
from the rain, the bumblebee too,
the occasional fly,
the hungry spider.

All sought refuge inside the cloak
felt the storm sway the stalk
as if to ring the bells
to sing "you are safe".

© Copyright 2022 Kåre Enga [178.338] (27.januar.2022)

Plumbago

The sun fell, leaving a carpet of light
blue blooms on bright green leaves
irrepressibly cheerful.

Not matter how often the gardener
clipped and fashioned them
they always sprung forth with joy
for where there was there joy

...there was hope.

falls from winter's ornaments
one tear too heavy

January's bloom

Red geraniums sit back
from the window sill:
too cold, too drafty;
peer out at the snow (shudder).

Frozen fog blurs the divide
between greys: dull and bright,
defined now as white on white
beyond splashes of crimson.

Bamiyan

The blast, riven the rock
as Buddha's face fell,
stirring up dust
that slowly settled.

But the heart cannot be denied
as over the rubble
moss grows like stubble,
slowly reclaiming its own.

Hammock in the sky

Rise me up above this ennui
let me fly where eagles soar
where ghosts and unicorns once played
fashioning the wispy hoar.

Here thoughts have wings and dreams range free
where I can stretch and let time flow;
between two fluffy bunny ears,
let me rest where daydreams go.

© Copyright 2022 Kåre Enga [178.328] (22.january.2022)

In My Hands

I hold you tight.
You're in good Hands.
My Love will guide you
through the storms, and
keep you on this Path;
but, do not fear
heights nor depths. Go.
Walk in peace.
