Preger Keger Invitations

MEERESTILLE

Scoglio Ustica

Ustica Rock / Rock at Ustica


Waterfront reigns a deep calm,
property rests on the sea, the sailor looks

anxiously around the smooth expanse. Not a breath
nowhere
deadly quiet, terrible! On the surface
immense
does not move even a wave.

herrscht Stille Tiefe im Wasser, Ohne
Regung ruht das Meer, Und
bekümmert sieht der Schiffer
Glatt Area around.
No air from any quarter!
Dead Calm terrible!
In the vast size
Reget every wave.
(JW Goethe)


Calmly slumb'ring lies the main, While the sailor
views with trouble Nought but one vast level
plain.
Not a zephyr is in motion!
Silence fearful as the grave!
In the mighty waste of sea
Sunk to rest is ev'ry wave.

(JW Goethe)

Milena Velba Review Rabbits

GABBIANI / Gulls

Gabbiano

A gull flies in a milk-white sky / A gull flies in a milky sky


do not know where the gulls have their nests, where
find peace.

I am like them in perpetual flight.
Life
like being the cascading water to catch food.
And as you may also love the quiet, the great calm
marine
but my fate is to live
flashing in the storm.
(V. Cardarelli)
