A mayfly amour
alluring nymph emerges
fleeting contentment
Blossoming sorrow
Ostara's carnal bounty
perishes with heat
Invisible wind
harbinger of sultry days
carries off my heart

pelegrinoalmost 7 years agoVery nice and powerfully expressed.
I find well operating correspondence between these three and the three sonnets of Saudade. I find the meaning here being the essence to the sonnets, but of all three perhaps the last is my best, cause it gives me hope again and space to move. (the first two gave me a sense of abandonment to fate). This is a quick take, I need to think more about the relationships, and I may do so by returning to the sonnets (as obviously they have a lot more sonic qualities for me) and try to work through them with music.
I did not know that Ostara can be related to Easter ( I thought it was a completely Jewish concept and could relate it only to the biblical personality of Esther), but I live and learn…
thanks, 5ved
