August Stramm: Begegnung (Gedicht)

 

Begegnung

Dein Gehen lächelt in mich über
Und
Reißt das Herz.
Das Nicken hakt und spannt.
Im Schatten deines Rocks
Verhaspelt
Schlingern
Schleudert
Klatscht!
Du wiegst und wiegst.
Mein Greifen haschet blind.
Die Sonne lacht!
Und
Blödes Zagen lahmet fort
Beraubt beraubt!

August Stramm
(1874-1915)
Begegnung, 1914

Herman Melville: The Land Of Love (Poem)

 

The Land Of Love

Hail! voyagers, hail!
Whence e’er ye come, where’er ye rove,
No calmer strand,
No sweeter land,
Will e’er ye view, than the Land of Love!

Hail! voyagers, hail!
To these, our shores, soft gales invite:
The palm plumes wave,
The billows lave,
And hither point fix’d stars of light!

Hail! voyagers, hail!
Think not our groves wide brood with gloom;
In this, our isle,
Bright flowers smile:
Full urns, rose-heaped, these valleys bloom.

Hail! voyagers, hail!
Be not deceived; renounce vain things;
Ye may not find
A tranquil mind,
Though hence ye sail with swiftest wings.

Hail! voyagers, hail!
Time flies full fast; life soon is o’er;
And ye may mourn,
That hither borne,
Ye left behind our pleasant shore.

Herman Melville
(1819 – 1891)

NEW YEAR 2020 – Zu Neujahr ein Gedicht von Wilhelm Busch

 

Zu Neujahr

Will das Glück nach seinem Sinn
Dir was Gutes schenken,
Sage Dank und nimm es hin
Ohne viel Bedenken.

Jede Gabe sei begrüßt,
Doch vor allen Dingen:
Das, worum du dich bemühst,
Möge dir gelingen.

Wilhelm Busch
(1832 – 1908)
Deutscher Zeichner, Maler und Schriftsteller
(Quelle: Wilhelm Busch Gedichte. Schein und Sein, 1909)
