The landscape artist
I watched a landscape artist
who was moving the nature
from the bosom of earth.
on a canvas.
The scenery was coming to life, slowly, meticulously.
From the far end of the green meadows
the trees moved in.
The trunks first, followed by the high branches,
and finally, the flowers, on the tip of the young shoots.
Colours mingled in abundance.
A man was walking his dog.
A woman moved on the edge.
Her loose, golden hair, dancing wildly
with the breeze.
From among the forest, the searching eyes of a deer
appeared and froze on the canvas.
The brush swerved slowly,,
bringing to life the nature in full.
Someone passed by, humming a song.
The painter sat him on an abandoned rock.
The notes wandered outside the frame.
Two lovers kissed on the lips,
and whispered something inaudible.
The murmur of their love
wandered outside the frame.
I watched the still nature moving
to the frame.
The sounds, the music, the words
all, outside the frame,
spoke of an unfinished business.
