A QUESTION

A voice said, Look me in the stars

And tell me truly, men of earth,

If all the soul-and-body scars

Were not too much to pay for birth.

La lune blanche
Luit dans les bois;
De chaque branche
Part une voix
Sous la ramée…

Ô bien-aimée

L’étang reflète,
Profond miroir,
La silhouette
Du saule noir
Où le vent pleure…

Rêvons,c’est l’heure

Un vaste&tendre
Apaisement
Semble descendre
Du firmament
Que l’astre irise…

C’est l’heure exquise.

C’est que je vois les flots sombres,
Toi, les astres enchantés !
C’est que, perdu dans leurs nombres,
Hélas, je compte les ombres
Quand tu comptes les clartés !

Quand tous deux nous croyons lire
Ce que la nature écrit,
Réponds, ô toi que j’admire,
D’où vient que mon cœur soupire ?
D’où vient que ton front sourit ?

FIREFLIES IN THE GARDEN

Here come real stars to fill the upper skies,
That though they never equal stars in size,
(And they were never really stars at heart)
Achieve at times a very star-like start.

Only, of course, they can't sustain the part.

WARM SUMMER SUN

Warm summer sun,
Shine kindly here,
Warm southern wind,
Blow softly here.
Green sod above,
Lie light, lie light.
Good night, dear heart,
Good night, good night.

🖋️HIGH FLIGHT (AN AIRMAN’S ECSTASY) by John Gillespie Magee Jr.
June 17, 2025 at 9:00 AM
Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun-split clouds, - and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence.

Your thoughts are a veil on the face of the Moon. That Moon is your heart, and those thoughts cover your heart. So let them go,
just let them fall into
the water.

🖋️Robert Frost
The Freedom of the Moon
May 27, 2025 at 7:21 AM
I've tried the new moon tilted in the air
Above a hazy tree-&-farmhouse cluster
As you might try a jewel in your hair.
I've tried it fine with little breadth of luster,
Alone, or in one ornament combining
With one first-water start almost shining.
I put it shining anywhere I please.

🖋️ The Swan (Der Schwan) by Rainer Maria Rilke, 1907, translated by Robert Bly
May 18, 2025 at 12:31 PM

And to die, which is the letting go
of the ground we stand on and cling to every day,
is like the swan, when he nervously lets himself down into the water,

unmoving and marvelously calm,
is pleased to be carried, each moment more fully grown,
more like a king,
further and further on.

- Rilke

QUIETNESS

Inside this new love, die.
Your way begins on the other side.
Become the sky.
Take an axe to the prison wall.
Escape.
Walk out like someone suddenly born into color.
Do it now.
...
The speechless full moon comes out now.

- Rumi

A new moon teaches gradualness and deliberation and how one gives birth to oneself slowly.
Patience with small details makes perfect a large work, like the universe.
