PAINTINGS BY EMMY VERSCHOOR

VOOR EMMY

Voor Emmy

Zijn het pluimen of bladeren
die ontsnappen uit je binnenste hartkamer
of is het de gloed van de kleur van kloppend bloed
hunkerend naar de stilte van rimpelloos
Water?

Als haar handen vloeibaar worden
krijgt de piano vleugels op het doek
Een boom verbijt haar vergezicht
In de diepte luisteren wortels verrukt
naar de zachte braille van haar bestaan
Tuinen hangen van de wolken
omlaag, omhoog groeien vreemde bloemen
uit een ingebeelde notenbalk.

The hidden eyes and the hidden heart


Poem around art by M. NIDHAM from Oman


The hidden eyes in flowers
seduce the gates of heaven

Birds pick up their scent
distribute them in the faraway trees

Umbrellas in the rain
are they and weightless perfumes

In the night fish glow
to light the oceans

They learned this trick
from desert sand and roses

They teach me also how to paint the horizon
with all the colours of the hidden heart
