Dancing at night
Waterfalls spilling down
A sheer rock face;
Big sky country limitless
To the horizon
And winters so bleak
Your heart breaks from sighing.
Unless you’ve seen these
You don’t understand me
A land of extremes
Breeds desperate dreams.
Everything is spaces,
Distance and isolation
The forests primal
An icon of survival.
Even in cities
With canyons of glass
Drive a few miles
And see the contrast;
The wilderness is close
Not far from our doors,
Deer leap through woods;
A loon calls from the shore.
Como bien dices :"si no lo he visto, no podría entender", pero con tus palabras logras pintarme ese paisaje que desconozco. A través de las palabras puedo imaginarme esa aridez, la distancia y la soledad. Hay un poema en mi país que dice."trázalo con tus letras que yo sabré pintarlo con el corazón". Usted es un artista, @johnjddes, y escribe hermosamente lo que está a su alrededor. Abrazos
Un dicho tan hermoso, Nancy - "trázalo con tus letras que tú sabrás pintarlo con el corazón" Me alegra que mis palabras puedan tocarte
OH Canada. Breeds us strong and friendly. Love this, John:)
It really does - Thanks, Pryde :)
Dear friend, I live in a tropical country and the closest I've been to the Northern Lights is Spain, so I've never had the happiness of seeing such a worthy spectacle of nature. I loved your poetry John.
Thanks, Felix :)
Me having a thirst for travel, I usually get my inspiration of 'where to go next' from photos. However, your poetry has just inspired me to the Northern Lights. The thing about traveling anywhere, is that pictures never truly do it justice until you are there experiencing it. "Unless you see me, you don't understand me." The reason why I must see things from myself and travel around the globe! Keep writing my friend!
Thank you!
