The Beckoning Shore: Another ZW Poetry Thread |
|
The Beckoning Shore
Where the green Meets the blue Where the sand Warms the toes Where the sun Dips into sea
When the breeze Wraps the body When the birds Sing the key When the shell Speaks into ear
Why the shore Calls the name Why the sailors Love the sea Why the mystery Beckons unto me
Taste the salt air Of morning Embrace the sunset Of twilight Dance the rhythm Of waves
The hushed crash of surf Welcomes me home The soft whisper of love Oceans we roam.
--- ZW, March 26, 2005
Now, let's hear yours. :-)

My Dearest Emile
— From a letter by Van Gogh
Sunset? Moonrise? Summer sunshine at all events. A mauve town, yellow star, blue-green sky. The corn is in all tones of old gold, copper, greenish or reddish gold, yellowy gold, bronze- yellow, greenish red.
A size 30 canvas, and square. I painted it with the mistral at its height, my easel was pegged to the ground with iron stakes, a method I recommend. You dig in the legs of the easel, then next to them an iron spike fifty centimetres long. You tie it all together with rope.
Then you can work in the wind.
