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.

IV.

Ik hoedzje yn myn herte it frjeonskips-fjûr
Fen âlde goaden my bitroud; de wyn
Bliest rou en kâld myn froast’ge noasters yn
En gounzet om myn herte, oerginstich, njoer—

Mar sterker is myn herte as stiel, gjin kloer
Tobrekt syn doar, gjin froastwyn krûpt it yn;
Yn iiv’gens waermjend hoedet it de skyn
Fen ’t hillich ljocht, bitroud fen ’t Albistjûr.

Sêft barnt dit fjûr, in wite lampe lyk
By jountiid strieljend efter read gerdyn,
Sa skynt it yn myn herte, feilich, frij—

En ’t skynt myn swakten sterk, myn earmoed ryk,
Mar sims, as bûten gûlt in boazer wyn,
Den, efkes, flikkret it en skroeit it my.
