העברית ממש מיד אחרי… 🙂
The winds' flute twirls
between the rains' drums
and the thunder-bass's
changing tempos,
arranging / re-arranging
the water fragments and hail-dots
that frolic in the crisp air,
creating the Elements' dance
Surrounded by this symphony I sit
with the memento box in my lap
sifting through it, remembering,
arranging / re-arranging
a fragment, a dot, a lost tempo –
a note, a gift, an experience –
the Elements that make up
Life's dance

חליל הרוח מסתלסל
בין תופי הגשם
לבין הבסים הרועמים
במקצבים משתנים,
מסדר ומארגן את
רסיסי המים וניקוד הברד,
המחוללים באוויר החד,
יוצר את ריקוד האיתנים
יושבת לצלילי הסימפוניה הזו
כשקופסת העבר בחיקי,
מחטטת בה, נזכרת,
מסדרת ומארגנת את
הרסיס, הניקוד, המקצב האבוד –
הפתק, המתת, החוויה –
האיתנים המרכיבים
את ריקוד החיים

love the way you've captured the rhythm of wind and life
אהבתיאהבתי
Thank you 🙂
I sometimes think that in a way we go through life like the wind blows through the world
אהבתיאהבתי
I enjoyed rereading your poem…so like the winds…..
אהבתיאהבתי
I'm Happy you enjoyed it.
The reason that got me publishing what I write in the first place was the hope to give something to the reader. Thanks for letting me know 🙂

A beautifully melodic poem – And loved the sifting thru the memory box – really lovely – thanks!
אהבתיאהבתי
It's what you inspired so I thank you
You managed to touch something in me 🙂

Wonderful to see the way the wind becomes entangled with life and in that memento box.. the wind a presence with its rythm and music.. really a low key emotion in this that capture the essence of the wind.
אהבתיאהבתי
I couldn't resist it, it was entangled like that in my mind from the first time I read the inspiring post on dVerse 🙂

nice use of music in this…I love the sound of rain as well…and the wind blending in def adds a layer to the music…
אהבתיאהבתי
We had quite a few storms lately (not such a regular occurrence in these parts) and they helped me realize this aspect of the weather. Sometimes it is music 🙂

So nice to meet you at D'verse ~ I love the tempo of the dance and the symphony of arranging and re-arranging the elements and sounds ~ I find it cool to see another language and writing on the other side, smiles ~ Thanks for joining in ~
אהבתיאהבתי
Very nice to meet you too 🙂 and thank you. Glad you liked it.
And thanks also for being there to join! This has been fun and interesting, and I'm looking forward to tomorrow, when I'll be back to reading the ones I ran out of time for today

Ooh, I like the analogy and the perfect parallel structure of the first and second stanza. A prefectly controlled, well-balanced poem. Welcome to dVerse and hope to see you here again!
אהבתיאהבתי
Oh, wow, thanks! But you gave me a touch too much credit and I wouldn't want to disappoint you in future.
I see myself as an emotional writer. As such, control and balance are more subconscious than a real cerebral effort on my part, they could be missing here and there.
But I too hope to see everyone at dVerse again 🙂

This is beautiful. I especially like the second stanza, the sifting through a memory box. Peace, Linda
אהבתיאהבתי
Thank you 🙂 It is actually based on a real stormy moment I experienced a couple of months back, which dVerse helped me put into words and finish. Very glad you liked it.
Peace to you too (and to all), L
אהבתיאהבתי
Beautiful!

נעים מאוד
I am just starting to study Hebrew so I know about — this much.. I like the sorting through the memento box. Excellent structure to this poem.. I enjoyed this a lot.
אהבתיאהבתי
נעים גם לי 🙂
good luck to you! Not the easiest language to learn in adulthood. All the best wishes for success
And I'm happy you enjoyed this. That's one of the reasons for writing – giving the reader something in return to their time spent here
