Memorial Poem
Say if you will my name
and speak of me without a shadow
in your voice, speak of me easily
as the restless world is still now
and its mountains lowered to the plain,
to the seashore and the endless sea,
For I am with you
and you with me.
Hear if you will the sound
of sweet music that surrounds
us with unheard-of harmonies;
for the cage of time is broken,
its iron bars are bent and open
and I am flying free,
And I am with you
and you with me.
i.m. Ingvar Backmann, jazz musician, my friend and neighbour. |
