Inge Buck: On That Day

On this day
by Inge Buck

On this day
I hugged the sea
a pale fish
pebbles
under me
in the mouth
Salt

Inge Buck is a poet who creates her own cosmos in just a few lines. Her themes: landscapes, cityscapes and beaches; Nature, beauty and transience, childhood, old age and landscapes of memory. And it is always the wind that sweeps across the landscape, it is the light that gives color to a landscape as the seasons change. In her texts, the author collects images, impressions, thoughts, things that are rarely perceived. Her poems are often stories shortened to images, they are stories behind the story.
