Nestor

“What is left, hence if not the pity of death?”

You’d seek for me and would come to see me, even you, my lieges. Seek out Nestor, first among sages.

I have listened to you my ears abashed and often I’ve asked myself how is it possible for a doubt to be born.

I have dug into my psyche I have beguiled her and  she’s replied.  

I have knocked at the door of serendipity and I’ve accepted the way it came.

Away, wherefore, with the awareness of having taken gloom and having given glee.

Neve

La finestra alta alta la più` alta che ci sia, la` c’era lei che guardava verso una striscia azzurro diafana e un mare schivo da tempesta.

L’occhio la guardava e lei guardava l’occhio riflessa nell’etere, lontano.

“Io mi ricordo di lei, ma non ricordo lei.” 

Ne sentii parlare poi  in termini poco chiari  con accenno a nuziali.

Erano belli i suoi capelli castano biondi con boccoli d’argento ma non l’ho vista cadere (e se l’ho vista non ricordo).

La grandine l’ho vista quella:  si`.

In a poem each verse should stand on its own.

poetry quotes #100

The “pezzonovante”

To be able to explain concepts related to subjective thoughts, philosophy has the advantage of tapping into universal notions.

Poetry, instead, must necessarily gather those concepts that wants to make universal, from personal ideas.

In this view poetry attains a higher significance than philosophy, as it works in direct synergy with originality of content and source of inspiration.

Nutella and Vegemite

From the sweet country of Nutella, la bella Italia, I came to live in Australia, the lucky country of bitter-sweet Vegemite:

I used to have merenda with Nutella, in the afternoon hours, spread on half a slice of pane di casa.

For breakfast although, it was panino con mortadella for me, a little bit more substance to start the day.

Now I usually have Vegemite on buttered toast for breakfast.  Nutella is a long distance memory that I keep in an inconspicuous corner of the fridge.

And it’s a cup of tea that enjoys my company in the afternoon hours of

this land down under.

The pear

While I was waiting I had it in my left hand then you came from behind the wall wearing a shawl and wanted to know how come I looked distraught.

Well, I thought I'd give it to you but I didn't know how so, I thought: I’ll give it to you with a teaspoon.

On second thought I should have thought: “try to Rap it up!”

To kill a minute: it surely must be impossible. It would put eternity out of sync.

If your aim is not to achieve anything you might have some chances to be successful.

Sun vs the Moon

Dawn’s broken

Sun shines over the valley

Gone is the Moon.

There are times in your life when you don’t  give a damn those moments are called Viciously Clever Intuitions.

You don’t need to be smart or necessarily educated to make it in life:  success is funny like that.

Three things are good at a long day's end; a drink, hot food, and a laugh with a friend.

@poetlegit thanks for the prompt♥️

Poetry’s at its best when it’s simple.
