Found

 


Mario Fallani (1934-2014) Gli alberi della vita 

[Found] 

“viewing mario fallani no. 1”

 

found the coin in a corner

I searched for endlessly

ready to cross the water

 

found the washbowl again

where I left it last

listening to hands in the water

 

found the house in the clearing

I’d forgot life held life precious

white beauty amidst the green

 

found seeds had burst the soil

as I raked away leaf litter

in gentle morning light

 

found words on a page

a revelation to me of being

in a book on an old shelf

 

on one day much like another

found your words to me

a day unlike any other

 

found sleep at last

a long time of it in the sun

that has gone below the trees

Found (February)

[For Ben Myers] [February 1979] Alexander Cruden moved us in sundry places. We found that ‘The Lord by wisdom hath found the earth.’ (Proverbs 3:19) That which was hidden from us was found. That may’ve been lost was found. The AV opened for us wisdom as an attribute of the Lord. By wisdom everything came into being. Abided, was restored. Roland Murphy found ‘the appearance of a cosmological role for Wisdom is sudden. She is now associated with the creative act of the Lord, who imitates human building.’ Thus the NRSV: ‘The Lord by wisdom founded the earth.’ [February 2019]

Wye


seventeen wye river ‘found haiku’ philip harvey collected in april 2015 from the ‘wye river separation creek progress association community newsletter easter 2015’ 

lack of progress in determining alignment for the river walk

funding problematic due to stalemate between principal parties

the reconstruction of the separation creek bridge in mid-winter

very sedately call-out wise with only half a dozen turnouts

they gained experience in burn patterns and fire behaviour

if grass is long around the station it means kev is caravanning

recommendation on extreme and code red days: leave and leave early

thanks to those who donated clothes books surfboards wetsuits and so much more

corangamite region estuary watch programme has expanded

a photo from ocean-side pedestrian bridge really says it all

patrolling finishes unusually early, on easter monday

beach conditions have been pretty consistent with fewer rips and swells

committee decided it is time to give easter wind ding a rest

realignment of path around the slip was completed, well received

rejuvenated wall is expected to have increased working life

listening to the music while watching the sea and the sun setting

lovely: not too many people, the sun shining and it’s not too hot
