“one by one
the stars come into view –
frigid cold!”
(Haiku by Taigi)
Genk (B)
In the world of skewness
When nature disappears from a front garden
“We, O Nature, depart,
Thou survivest us! this,
This, I know, is the law.
Yes! but more than this,
Thou who seest us die
Seest us change while we live;
Seest our dreams, one by one,
Seest our errors depart;
Watchest us, Nature! throughout,
Mild and inscrutably calm.”
(M. Arnold in The youth of man)
Chaudfontaine (B)
