by Tala Bar
From my peak of a mountain
I see you, all.
God is sad, but
Life awakens my laughter
And I laugh the sadness of life.
In my heart of a mountain
A cry is born, in time!
The procession passes in slow motion
Round and round the mountain;
We bury my god, in time!
At the foot of my mountain
He lies in peace…
I love you, all!
Laughter is love, and
Love is born of sadness.
Farewell! Come back
Tomorrow…

ABOUT THE POET ~
I am a writer and artist and I live in Israel. I studied Hebrew and English languages and literature and I hold a Master of Philosophy degree in literature from London University; before my retirement, I was a teacher of Hebrew and English languages and literature. I am interested in anthropology in general and in mythology in particular and I write with these subjects in mind. In literature, I am particularly interested in fantasy and science fiction and I have written and had published stories, novellas, novels and essays both in Hebrew and English. In 1993 I had a book of poems published in Hebrew., A list of my published works in English can be found (I hope) in this address: http://www.myspace.com/537888539/blog/541695998, Samples of my art works and some family photos can be found in the following address: http://cid-27cbdd735d2a1560.profile.live.com/details.
