Variations on #Mahler No. 2 #haiku

be resurrected
find your footing after rest
find yourself stronger

all things shall perish
if only to be reborn
immortality.

Life gathers all up
the inhalation of time
and breathes life anew

While rummaging for something else, I encountered this youtube video of the NY Philharmonic’s performance of Mahler’s second symphony in 2011, in remembrance of September 11, 2001, which led me to looking up the beautiful lyrics.

Or maybe it was the other way around. Such is the way of rummaging.
