   L'aura del campo 'é a lua, é a lua, na quintana dos mortos' ♣ Federico García Lorca ♣  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. PLEASE LEAVE COMMENTS!

| Day of the Dead November 1, 2020 Quentin put his red shoes on... and added glitter. If he was going to dance with David all night long he'd need more than an attitude... so lots of glitter. He sang. Let's sway until my ankles bend. Let's pray that this night doesn't end before the morning glitter in your hair glitter everywhere before I put my red shoes back on before my Muse wakes up and tells me this is but a dream. Let them say, quit making a scene! I'll say I'm your dancing queen! then shower them with glitter for even a queen is entitled to her dreams for even the dead deserve their own night out with glitter lots of glitter in their hair. © Kåre Enga [177.205] (1.september.2020) 27 line 'story' poem with rhythm and rhyme embedded. Two key lines used from "Let's Dance": Put on your red shoes Let's sway For:
"Let's Dance" Let's dance Put on your red shoes And dance the blues Let's dance To the song they're playin' on the radio Put on your red shoes While color lights up your face Let's sway Sway through the crowd to an empty space If you say run, I'll run with you If you say hide, we'll hide Because my love for you Would break my heart in two If you should fall into my arms And tremble like a flower Let's dance Let's dance Let's dance for fear your grace should fall Let's dance for fear tonight is all Let's sway You could look into my eyes Let's sway under the moonlight, This serious moonlight And if you say run, I'll run with you And if you say hide, we'll hide Because my love for you Would break my heart in two If you should fall Into my arms And tremble like a flower Let's dance Let's dance Let's dance Put on your red shoes And dance the blues Let's dance to the song they're playin' on the radio Let's sway under the moonlight, This serious moonlight [Repeat until the end:] Let's dance Let's sway |

| ten days of smoke sunflowers look up -- a patch of blue. [199a] my legs ache -- young people jog down to the river [199b] the breeze takes away the smoke -- when will it bring the chill [199c] thirsty skies -- a leaky hose quenches a green lawn. [199d] © Kåre Enga [177.199] (26.avgust.2020) |

| In the year 2010 We gazed into crystal balls; dazzled by what was shown in limpid pools, why didn't we see our fall? 24σ: 7/10/7 a(a)a (a) = near rhyme © Kåre Enga [177.190b] (16.avgust.2020) For:
Note: I confused limpid (bright, clear) with limp (in the sense 'worn-out') and wrote the following in a flash before I realized my misuse of limpid and put limping instead. I wrote the above in response to this so I leave it here to amuse myself: Chores Mopping these floors with ragged cheer, limping through August's dusty heat, as worn out as this endless year. © Kåre Enga [177.190a] (16.avgust.2020) 24σ: 8/8/8 axa |
