The impulse sparked in me by your pulse – a pianist’s long drawn-out note, a tune of soulful melancholy revolving around love Vibrating, trembling in the air the note, materializing here in this soft, rhythmic atmosphere struck by your pulse […]
Roam
Let us roam the Earth together with no plan or destination, travel inwards with eachother with no fear of deviation. Volatile and agile in our pursuit of every height and elevation, entwined by dreams we will endure and go beyond […]
The Sun Is Floating in a Sea of Mist
The sun is floating in a sea of mist with two pale cloud-boats in its wake, and all the sky irradiates as it emits its golden light to mist and clouds alike Then sinking in the sea of its own […]
The Seashore’s Waves Break on the Sky
The seashore’s waves break on the sky, the smoking curls of foam I see in tones from white to rose, the band extend along the invisible sea The winds of evening toss about the bands, the light turns them to […]
To Be Drawn
’Stretch out your leg and bend your arm, look to the left – sit still.’ I stay poised in front of you while you the paper fill. And then a new pose, and another on and on again – what […]
Unpolished Gem
You draw me in, unpolished gem With a clear sound music when you’re struck, it makes my head spin in ripples round Unpolished gem let me in Cast off your granite and let me behold for a moment the beauty […]
Moist
landscape lost in a humid cloud of nebulous mist that moist descends upon us dispersing white mist, seesawing – what a sight to behold before us fog twirling around pale smokestacks, we are found within this world, swirling around droplets […]
Hanging on its Stalk
glistening petals, pearly skin as white and rosy as a memory of fairytales told to me long ago – but somehow they don’t seem to be the lasting objects of veneration that I have sought, (that I came here to […]
The Rise and the Fall
Out of the ocean rises it, transparent in its beauty, cocks head in joyful majesty and marvels at its power, then bends its neck when nearing land, in curiosity – consumes itself in foam and then collapses on the sand; […]
The Cornflower
Balancing on a steady stem the tender purple bluish threads which make up its small, fragile head raised to the hiding sun, its rosy eye gleams to the sky, that through June ever blinds its eye to those who seek […]
An Old Gate
Grey wood, with reddish blotched spots that spread around the hinges – withered wood and rusted metal, bent by gravity and time – hanging on by habit only, guarding still the entrance to an abandoned site where lies a meadow, […]
Sunset at Sea
On such a pleasant evening I rejoice in the ocean’s waves’ ancient-old voice as they their thuds against the ship let sound amidst the vast, blue realm which us surround These waves, these North Sea hills and vales which I […]
In Moonlight
As night-time falls I watch the moon’s pale reflecting light rise up over the horizon’s far-off dunes of fields with varying crops, and listen to the night’s saddening tunes of crying crickets and falling drops and an owl who lonely […]
Descending Moon
Thin whirling veils of pink and gold are intertwined across the sky and dance in slow and graceful motion ‘round a perfect half-sphere, cold and white and drenched in mist that makes it wobble slightly to our eyes as it […]
Rainy Night
Luminescent night-air, walking in the dirzzling rain. There’s no light yet there is light and rain like mist with silence in its noise. Mid-autumn leaves cannot decide on letting go or holding on. No wind is there to help them […]
Silhouette
In curls and ringlets, dark yet vividly expressed like broken brushstrokes it bends and stretches out across a piece of sky that blotched in turquoise, purple, pink and orange bids the day: “goodbye”; this oak tree, curled as if asleep […]
Awaiting Thunder
The heavy, humid feeling of something approaching yet not yet near enough to bring release. The pressure of the atmosphere, the heat, the irritation and the claustrophobia of the moment. You wait and wait and wait. But thunder comes whenever […]
The Thunderstorm’s Approach
The pressure in the air is full of birdsong. The heat declares its presence everywhere. The faintest smell of apple blossoms and of grass comes greeting through the window on the swell. The cooling breeze comes to caress my hair, […]
Smoldering Trees
There are smoldering trees on the hill tonight and faint silhouettes of birds in flight but there’s no sign of you and there’s no heat to thaw the frost that cover grass and quiet trees, just this: The sun’s last, […]
Birdsong
Warble birds your sweet, sweet song. Never stop. Go on. Go on. My heart’s heavy, my song’s spent. My head’s heavy, earthward bent. Sing a song of sweet delight, send it upwards to the light while I wander in the […]
