About This Book

The collection gathers short lyric poems that move between contemplative calm and turbulent passion, using concise, musical lines and recurring images of sea, wind, seasons, and evening light. Many pieces voice longing, solitude, and consolation, often addressing a beloved or a singing presence while alternating hope and resignation. Natural phenomena—waves, storms, dawn, and autumn decay—serve as metaphors for inner states. Occasional sonnets and mythic or spiritual invocations broaden the formal range. Overall the poems emphasize sensory detail and melodic rhythm to explore memory, desire, and the search for solace amid change.

III.

Unnoaz’le, dû, ho is dyn each sa drôf!
Ryk bloeit dyn siele en seit hjar dreame-wille
Yn útrings klear en myld, dy’t dûrje scille,
As hiel dit slachte al foel en wylge yn stôf.

En drôvest om’t dyn ljeafde yn stille rôf
Dyn rêst dy naem, kleist om’t dyn skouders tille
In iiv’ge lêst fen hope en hún, gjin wille
Dy suver bliuwt—ei liz dyn leed den ôf.

Hwent sjuch, ien bliuwt aloan dyn dagen by:
Ast wirch bist, gean ta my: myn herte is sêft;
Ast woune waerdst, scil ik dy ring genêze.

Meije ek Idoena laitsje, ik hâld fen dy,
En eltse stoun scil ’t bêste fen myn krêft
Yn soarchs’me noed stil om dyn wegen wêze.
