This Joy of Landscape

This joy of landscape -
the gilt-edged grasses
on the early morning common -
is quick to pass
but lingers on like a well-hung canvas

One collects such images
and stores them lovingly
in a profuse architecture of chambers
tier upon tier
until one day you simply lock the door
and walk away
leaving perhaps a little catalogue
of bland entries
for those that stay next door

This is mine
That is yours
together we sing a grand oratorio
a muted requiem

Dance together to the same music
and our finger tips will not match precisely.
To the casual observer, however,
we remain one.

So our apparent little solitudes -
such painfully lonely lives -
melt away while walking
into the mystery seas
of early morning grass ~ Michael Kantey, South African poet
Digitally reimagined from a snap by Constance Widen
