15.02.2008 - Interpretation of dali48
In this poem - "Parliament of the Birds" of Chaucer - it is shown how the birds gather around the goddess nature on this holiday (St. Valentine) so that each one finds a partner (in retrospect I notice that yesterday (14.2.) I saw many birds flying in pairs, when I went by bicycle to Lake Morper in Erkrath etc. - d.48)... (Wikipedia)
Don't see swallows here in Wickrath (2018) as before at Lake Unterbach where they were deeply flying before the rain, and were nearly touching my head till 2010... (dali48)
see dali48 and "Those who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, see e.g. hobby hunting, roundups, animal testing, vivisection, killing of migratory birds, chick shredding, over-fishing etc. - siehe www.aerzte-gegen-tierversuche.de/news/aktuelle-news/3444 etc. - will deal likewise with their fellow man." (St. Francis of Assisi)
see dali48 and a bird's visit at his skylight (9.9.2021) in Wickrath, see seagulls from the coast of the Netherlands coming for fodder in winter to the park of Wickrath, - see "Flora & Fauna" since ca. the year 2000 etc.

09.12.2000 - Interpretation of dali48
For example, the media (see e.g. internet, TV, radio, newspapers, etc. - d.48) use the complex contexts of our days - to arouse fear... - Corruption and accidents etc. - determine the news and create a climate of the threat that has nothing to do with the reality of most of us... (A. Silverman)

This love is not the great and true love - which lasts for a lifetime, according to which the perseverance lingers and strives. - It is right and safe for the moment. - Eternal love for a partner is not there... - It is an hourly miracle - when the partner returns to love, - if not, let him go... - "Life itself is love, - and whoever truly loves life whom it teaches love," says Ernesto Cardenal... - The free and detached person gains his psychosomatic health, - at the price, only to be understood by a few! - He must be alone... - Something alive can not be possessed, - and certainly not a so highly complicated and sensitive being as a human being... - Coercion, oppression, routine, venality, obedience, commands, dependency, - all this is not part of love...
Separation reasons:
Love is dead, - you have fallen in love with another person and want to be together with her, - the other has committed a side-step, which you can not forget... - One can not cope with this physical change, - one wants children, but the partner does not want (1-21 reasons)... - This list can be continued over many pages (i.e. there are countless reasons for separation - but what reasons speak to stay together? - d.48)... - We were looking for relationship, wanted to hold on to each other, - we did not want to know anything about letting go. But we stick to the old but false techniques:
make the other dependent on sex, money and gifts, promises and status symbols... (P. Lauster)

14.02.2008 - Interpretation von dali48
A person sets out to write a poem for a variety of reasons:
to win the heart of his beloved, - to express his attitude toward the reality surrounding him, be it a landscape or a state, - to capture his state of mind at a given instant, - to leave as he thinks at that moment - a trace on earth...
One who finds himself in this sort of dependency on language is, I guess, what they call a poet... (J. Brodsky, Nobel L.)
