SUMMER JOY

SUMMER JOY ⭐

le recueil "Sources du Vent" de Pierre Reverdy est pour moi un des sommets de la poésie française contemporaine. On y trouve un équilibre insoupçonné entre le sensible et l'intelligible, le saisissable et l'insaisissable, le dicible et l'indicible, bref l'essence même de la poésie. Chaque rime est en soi une idée esthétique, comme dans "Lueurs des crépuscules", qui doit bien être le troisième ou quatrième poème pour lequel j'ai tenté une mise en musique.
PAROLES
LUEURS DES CREPUSCULES

Les vagues du matin à l’assaut des lucarnes
Le soleil écumant s’éclabousse au milieu
Le parterre est rempli de fleurs gonflées de larmes
Un bruit dans les allées inquiète le passant
 Tout s’arrête un moment
 Tout brille dans les branches
Et le spectacle change au moindre mouvement
Sur une vieille toile des lambeaux de mémoire 
Ont changé l’illusion mouvante de la nuit
Et rehaussant toujours l’or de ses accessoires
Le rêve suspendu trop haut déjà flétri
Au plafond s’attardait un doux son de guitare
Avec des mots précis et incompréhensibles
Le piège des yeux clairs et des cœurs trop sensibles
Où tous les signes bleus du jour sont restés pris
Heureusement guettant aux plis de la portière
Un air plus dur s’est mis à dissiper l’oubli
Le temps de s’en aller plus loin
 Mais toujours dans la même ville
Et sur le chemin qui descend
Les ombres de mauvaise mine
Des soirs où il fait mauvais temps
 Quand vers le fond du ciel la nuit froide décline
Quand les nuages bas volent sans discipline

 Pierre Reverdy

LYRICS
GLIMMER OF TWILIGHT

The morning waves attack the skylights
The foaming sun splashes in the middle
The bed is filled with flowers swollen with tears
A noise in the alleys worries the passer-by
 Everything stops for a while
 Everything shines in the branches
And the show changes at the slightest movement
On an old canvas, shreds of memory 
Have changed the moving illusion of the night
And always enhancing the gold of his accessories
The dream suspended too high, already withered
On the ceiling lingered a soft guitar sound
With precise and incomprehensible words
The trap of clear eyes and overly sensitive hearts
Where all the blue signs of the day remained caught
Fortunately watching for the folds of the door
A harsher air began to dispel the oblivion
Time to go further
 But still in the same city
And on the path down
Shadows of ill-looking
Evenings when the weather is bad
 When towards the bottom of the sky the cold night declines
When low clouds fly without discipline

 Pierre Reverdy

lueurs des crépuscules

Humans are the only species who preserve a lasting relationship from parents to children and vice versa after the offspring has reached adolescence. This can be curse and blessing at the same time in some cases, but overall it is a gift in my view. We will stay the children of our parents for a lifetime obviously. Once you have realized this and don't consider it a threat anymore you are given the chance to close the circle in a peace- and beautiful way.

One Day When it was Time to Come Home

Dedicated most especially to L.K.A.--our new little grandson so freshly arrived from the face of God.

Oh, that all children were loved.

Thank you, dear Oddrun, for the color and depth of meaning you bring to my music.  
Thank you, Arne, for your help and encouragement.

Let Nature Embrace you.

Wrapped in red, orange and blue
The little baby in mothers arms
Tiny white jasmin growing in her garden
Mother Nature dressed in spring
From magic skies of mint
Every color spins new
In future clear as aquablue

Let Nature Embrace you
Gently
So gently

Life`s colors flow from gold to umber
In crocuses, Petunias
In Asters and in Pansies
A thousand shades of reds
In yellows and in brown
From Magic skies of mint
Every color spins new
In future clear as aquablue




May Nature Embrace you
Gently
So gently

Gently: Oddrun Eikli and Debra Buesking

Hello guys on SoundCloud, very nice to see you again!
It has been a long time since my last release. Many things happened and gone away around me. And the world can never stop changing, I feel like I’m standing in a storm. 
This is the song of such stormy,confusing world , hope you’re all safe and well.

Lyrics 
Bringing back
Streaming inside
To walk around
Both of your hands

Breaking down
Fall on ground
Grabbing your hands up
Breath again

Now when we hurry out tomorrow
 (never tell you that)
Better way to soon
( take me to the place)
Just one more time together
If we out of tomorrow away 

Left behind out 
Waking crowd
Blowing wind
Where you go
(All fake world)
Let me heard out
Crossing inside
Whisper then
I know your lie
(Don’t look back)
We know your lie

Out Back Storm

What did I see - Valentino

Sailing Away

It goes without saying but no music maker or AI.  Thank you all for your encouragement. 

If there’s one thing that you must do
Be yourself and let the light shine through
It’s time stand up tall and proud
Don’t let the bad times bring you down

If it feels like your broken heart won’t mend
When  all seems lost you’ll find your strength within

Take a look at the world around you
it’s your life and it’s finally found you
now it feels like you are not alone
And it feels like you’ve come home
 
See the people walking hand in hand
It’s time for  celebration in this land

We all come from the stars
We all are who you are
We were born to shine
We were born to live our life
We  were born to find our happiness where you might

this love it makes me high
As we float across the sky 
Now we Hold your heads up high
And together we will rise

(cue self indulgent fade out)

Expedition Journal

10th June
The hieroglyphs are faded and unclear, but the riddle might be solved.

15th June 
A secret entrance, long buried in the sands of time, finally a way inside the Sphinx.

16th June
We hear the sound of an ancient mechanism and an opening appears. Stepping inside, we discover chambers of wondrous size and form, but all are empty. Our flickering torches show air still moves inside this wonder of the ancient world.
 
Suddenly we find ourselves in danger and running for a possible exit. A mechanical sound of rock sliding over ancient rock. We barely escape with our lives.

17th June
Our entrance and hurried exit are both now fully sealed from intruders. There will be no second chance.

Flying away in the helicopter, the enigmatic Sphinx looks on.

As it always has.

As it always will.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dave had worked hard to create a great template of ideas in a fully realised track. Whilst thinking of the title the idea was formed of making it an almost 'Indiana Jones type adventure' with explorers finding a secret way into the Sphinx. This resulted in the journal entry above to set the scene. 

I spent a fair bit of time getting the Phrygian Dominant scale under my fingers for the electric guitar work to contrast Dave's sinuous, winding synth lines.

The end result hopefully does lead the listener on the adventure, with a grand start, a way inside, wonder, peril then danger, before a hurried escape by a different exit as the Sphinx defeats the intruders and seals all the doorways forever. Finally a tiny reprise featuring a departing helicopter closes out the track.
