#NationalPoetryMonth Day 22:

The Peace of Wild Things by Wendell Berry

Painting: Reading Woman in the Forest by Gyula Benczur (1875)

#PoetryCommunity #Poetry

The painting is Reading Woman in the Forest by Gyula Benczur (1875). It depicts a woman in a Victorian black dress and straw hat, laying propped up on her side, on a red and green tartan blanket, reading a book in the forest. The ground is inclined, sloping down toward the right. The trunks and roots of large trees fill the background, and a beige parasol lays next to her on the left. [Image courtesy of the Hungarian National Gallery.]

This is paired with a poem by Wendell Berry:

The Peace of Wild Things
When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.

We Real Cool by Gwendolyn Brooks

Painting: Jammin’ at the Savoy by Romare Bearden

#PoetryCommunity #Poetry

This painting is a colorful abstract mixed media collage called Jammin’ at the Savoy by Romare Bearden. There is a guitarist in the front accompanied on the left to right by a drummer, upright bassist, horn player, saxophonist, and piano player. Blues, greens, plums, and golden colors make the jam session come to life.

This is paired with a poem by Gwendolyn Brooks:

We Real Cool

THE POOL PLAYERS.
SEVEN AT THE GOLDEN SHOVEL.
We real cool. We
Left school. We
Lurk late. We
Strike straight. We
Sing sin. We
Thin gin. We
Jazz June. We
Die soon.

Here is a macro photo I took of our last bi-color snapdragon in the front garden. The day was beautifully grey and rainy. Though there was no chance of seeing a tropical sunset, this flower held the might of dusk's glory in its misty face. This scoop of autumn sherbert glows against green peeps of background bokeh. Bending in for a closer look with my camera, I became enchanted by the perfect spheres scattered across its pink-red-orange-yellow petals. Within each crystal ball raindrop, a small universe of color and light. Their augury? My new 3-5-3 haiku:

Auf einem Waldweg mit Laubbäumen liegt vorne links ein Reisigbündel. Das Sonnenlicht fällt von links ein und erhellt sowohl den vor dem Bündel stehenden Baum als auch den Weg. Grünpflanzen und der Schattenwurf der Bäume befinden sich im vorderen Abschnitt des Waldweges.

Thulusdhoo, Maldives. Sunset Golden Hour at the Sunset Beach. Standing at the shoreline, gazing out at the turquoise and gold-tinged lagoon, the sun peeks through the low clouds, casting a golden hue over the horizon. The sky, adorned with golden clouds, gradually transitions into a deep blue as it ascends. The higher clouds, bathed in the setting sun’s glow, exude a radiant light, creating a mesmerizing spectacle.
