About This Book

Emorys digte rummer et langt levet liv. Et liv levet i to lande pĂ„ to kontinenter, USA og Danmark. Emory viser i digtene en spirituel indsigt, og formidler et syn pĂ„ livet der beriger os alle."Din styrke som lyriker er at du kan gennemspille stemninger og tanker i et ordmĂžnster der har megen indre konsekvens og fasthed. OgsĂ„ at du har levet og oplevet sĂ„ meget at du har rige erfaringer at skrive ud fra – og uden erfaring, menneskeliv, ingen poesi, ingen kunst. Mange af dine digte er skrevet som sange, de rĂ„ber pĂ„ musik."Erik Knudsen, forfatter og digter.The content of Emory's poems is a long life – a life lived on two continents, in the USA and Denmark. In her poems, Emory shows us spiritual insight and conveys a view of life that enriches all of us. "Your strength as a lyricist is that you can play through moods and thoughts in a pattern of words that has a lot of inner consequence and firmness – that you have lived through so much that you have rich experiences you can draw on in your writing. Without experiences and human life, no poetry and no art. Many of your poems are written like songs. They cry for music."Erik Knudsen, author and poet.

TAKE A WALK WITH ME

GÅ EN TUR MED MIG

Kom og gÄ en tur med mig i haven
gÄ en tur med mig i solen.
Kom og gÄ en tur med mig i aften
nÄr arbejdet er gjort.
Kom og gÄ en tur med mig i dalen
og i bjergene som vokser fra bakkerne.
GĂ„ en tur med mig alle I bĂžrn
mens uroen dybt i os finder hvile.
GĂ„ en tur for evigt sĂžgende,
for evigt givende og visdomssĂžgende.
Lad al kĂŠrlighed strĂžmme mellem os
som den rensende kraft i sĂžen.
GĂ„ en tur gennem hele vort liv
liv strĂžmmende mellem dig og mig.
Denne del af os lever evigt
og gÄr gennem evigheden.

TAKE A WALK WITH ME

Come take a walk with me in the garden
take a walk with me in the sun.
Come take a walk with me in the evening
when the work of the day is done.
Come take a walk with me in the valley
and the mountains that grow from the hills.
Take a walk with me all you children
while the turmoil deep in us stills.
Take a walk forever seeking,
forever giving and learning to take.
Let all love flow between us
like the cleansing power of the lake.
Take a walk throughout our living,
life giving from you and me.
This part of us lives forever
and walks through eternity.

BEGYNDELSER OG SLUTNINGER

TallĂžse begyndelser
og tallĂžse slutninger.
Meget af det rart
noget trist.
Mange tab, mange sejre.
Meget af det godt
noget skidt.
Hvor fĂžrer det os hen?
Hvad er formÄlet?
Spurgte jeg ansigtet koldt som ler.
Uden mumlen hĂžrte jeg det hviske:
Det kan du ikke vide.
Ved stenene dér at de udgÞr et bjerg?
Eller hvert sandkorn en strand?
Ved hver lille tone at de udgĂžr en sang?
Eller hvert lille ord en tale?
Hver lille regndrÄbe, som falder
fra himlen,
ved de, at tilsammen er det regn?
SĂ„ hvordan kan du vide om Ă„rsagen
til din latter
i morgen mÄske forÞger din smerte?
Det billede af livet, som falder
fra din pensel,
vil du aldring se fuldendt.
For der er tallĂžse begyndelser
og tallĂžse slutninger.
Mange af dem triste
nogle gode.

BEGINNINGS AND ENDS

Countless beginnings
and countless ends.
Much of it sweet
some sad.
Many the losses and many the winnings.
Much of it good
some bad.
Where does it lead us?
What is the purpose?
I asked the face cold as clay.
Without a murmur, I heard it whisper:
It is not for you to say.
Do yonder rocks know that they make
a mountain?
Or each grain of sand a beach?
Does each little note know that it makes
a song?
Or each little word a speech?
Does each little raindrop falling from
heaven, know
that together it's rain?
So how can you know the source
of your laughter
tomorrow may add to your pain?
The picture of life that falls
from your brush
you'll never see complete.
For there are countless beginnings
and countless ends.
Much of it sad,
some sweet.

HUSK

Den rasende vind sÄ kold og klar
solen gÄet i skjul.
Latter stilnede, da bĂžrnene frĂžs,
og ophĂžrte deres vinterleg.
Men kĂŠrlighed og venskab fyldte vore hjerter
og solskin fyldte vort rum,
og dansede omkring fra hjerte til hjerte
for at fordrive vinterens mĂžrke.
Husk...
