But if contact is made, the reader recognizes that he is not alone in the inner world in which he moves and which he does not always dare to trust: another human being, too, moves in it, speaks of it, and thus proves that it exists. The intangible, irrational reality which only poetry and music can reveal floods him with unexplainable relief and happiness. The poem is full of many human beings' manifold truths. For each one of us experiences truth and glory in his own way. 'Perhaps you do not now what Tama's Iove is like. Water is Tama's Iove. Come, bathe in Tama. A bridge is Tama's Iove. Walk along Tama. Branch, swaying in the wind, is Tama's Iove. Tama forgets her will, knows only yours. Tama forgets her whims listening for yours. The night 'is Tama's Iove. Tama evaparates in order to create. The Iove of Tama is the fertile earth. Each of your words will germinate in Tama. The deep is Tama's Iove. Go down in Tama.' ~Sirkka Selja 'Thank you for these illusions, thank you for fragile fancies, this side up, handle with care. Touch of reality, now gentle, now unkind, the true-life knocks and kicks can never harm . illusion.' ~Eila Pennanen Sharing Widget |
