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.

In a field of sunflowers

He stares speechless,
oblivious to all,
overcome by
your bounteous beauty,
your righteous weeds.

© Kåre Enga (8.january.2020)

4/6/4/6/4/ No rhythm, no rhyme, no alliteration. The three long words share a common unstressed last syllable, more an echo than a rhyme. Also: a juxtaposition of two people: the admirer and the admired. The title gives a humble, perhaps MidWestern.

Note:
weeds: a black garment (dress) worn by a widow as a sign of mourning

righteous:

1. (of a person or conduct) morally right or justifiable; virtuous.
"feelings of righteous indignation about pay and conditions"

2. INFORMAL•US very good; excellent.
"righteous bread pudding"
