Anna Szabó T.On Darkness
Where the heart was, a word is beating: Forget.
There was heat, though; you lay back in the grass
and felt the pulsations searing through your flesh,
under your eyelids, there, where the sun was;
a mirage burns into the retina
like the trace left by a touch upon your skin,
the grass, the sun, the feeling cold, the drying
and the smell over cooling water of the wind…
the word beats, stammers, forget it, let it drop
just as the warm, rough palm tenderly reaches,
unexpectedly, almost devoid of weight,
to touch the naked shoulder, while the beach
sinks into dusk, the water stirred by the wind,
a shivering body filling up with warmth…
you dare not move.
It's gone. Quite gone. The season
is changing - oh so slowly the sky revolves.
Snow falls on the water, forget, forget,
behind the eyes darkness without a flaw,
which does not warrant tears, it has not the weight.
But if you let it drop, you too will fall
beneath dark water cold as ice, oh such
a deep cold that there simply is no longer
sun enough to melt it with a touch.

György Somlyó: Stake and treeI cut a stake to hold a flower,
had pushed it in a pot of soil and thought
that as my knife had killed it, it really ought
be dead, that I commanded all the power
to make of it what whim would say I could,
and that its trunk was there to serve my need,
no shoots on it, no roots to feed,
a tree no longer, only a stake of wood.
But how the beauty of life puts man to shame:
no sooner was it in the earth there came
resinous buds that opened up with glee.
Maimed, reduced to thing, it dared defy
ignoble death, rejected it to cry
that it was more than wood - and stayed a tree.

Ágnes Nemes NagyWinter trees
You have to learn. The trees in winter.
As hoarfrost dresses foot, top, centre
curtains of white that nothing moves –
You have to learn those secret grooves
where crystals start to turn to vapour
and trees fade over into fog
just as bodies flow into memory
And the river behind the trees
flapping mute wings of skeins of geese,
the blues of blinding ice-white nights
in which some hooded objects linger -
this is our task: We have to seize
the trees' inexplicable deeds.
