ENGLISH VERSION
La MARCHE des SEMENCES “ The WALK of SEEDS ” Departure Friday April 25 to Sunday May 4, 2025 Departure from Diois, France JOIN US AND SUPPORT BUZURUNA “BUJU” JUZURUNA WALK INFO and join us WEBSITE or FaceBook SOLIDARITY LEBANON - Supporting agroecology and human Permaculture in Lebanon WE HAVE OPENNED A PARTICIPATORY FUNDING FOR BUZURUNA JUZURUNA “BUJU” PROJECTS , THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for your donations and solidarity. The money will go towards 2 projects: This funding will be used to finance various projects carried out by the Buzuruna Juzuruna school farm and its partners. Key projects for 2025 include : - The Bulaban Circus: for the past 3 years, a small circus initiation association has set up its big top in the middle of the farm to introduce children (from the farm and the neighborhood) to circus, manual and artistic activities. In 2024, the Bulaban collective enabled some forty children to take part in weekly workshops; an opportunity for them to imagine and bring stories to life, learn new tricks and have fun together. These workshops culminated in June with a beautiful parade through the streets of Saadnayel! In order to be able to continue their work, we would like to support them by purchasing materials that will be used to run the workshops. - The creation of a new collective garden on the Beqaa plain. This garden will benefit 15 families (Syrian and Lebanese), covering 1 hectare. These gardens are intended to last over time. In doing so, we hope to meet a number of local challenges: - Provide a healthy, local food supply; - Enabling families to become more self-sufficient and less dependent on subsidies and/or market prices; - Break out of isolation by creating a space for inter-community collaboration between host and refugee families; - Improve living conditions; - Anticipate future crises that could exacerbate food insecurity. The funds raised will be used, among other things, to finance the purchase of tools, irrigation systems, training...

POEMES de Azul Thome

UNE PRIÈRE aux SEMENCES
Ô dieux et déesses des semences de la Libération, esprits du premier souffle, esprits à venir, gardiens de ce qui fut, de ce qui sera, veillez sur nos pas, nos mains, nos cœurs à vif et douloureux. Nous appelons les graines d’hier et de demain, celles qui ont brûlé, celles qui ont été portées sur le dos des exilées, celles qui sont cachées à l’ombre des oliviers et des cèdres, dans l’attente, l’attente, l’attente… Les graines de la résistance enfouies dans la terre et les os, dans les poings serrés, pressées sous des langues qui refusent d’oublier. Nous marchons pour elles, avec eux, pour celles qui gardent le chant des graines libres au Levant, au Liban dans les sols brisés d’ailleurs. Dites-nous, esprits semenciers que devons-nous défricher? Que devons-nous garder près de nous ? Quel silence, quel cri, quel sang, quelle prière prépareront nos corps, nos âmes à ce qui s’en vient ? Quel chant fendra la terre en deux ? Quelle offrande fera lever le blé, fera que le vent nous porte en avant ? Nous marchons pour eux. Nous marchons avec elles. Dans la poussière et le feu, dans le silence et la fureur, pour qu’elles ne soient jamais engloutis par l’oubli. Nous sommes ici. Et ailleurs. Sommes-nous prêtes ? Prêts à écouter. Prêtes à marcher. Prêts à semer un monde digne de s’ouvrir, digne de s’élever. Azul Thome @azul_souland |
Human Weeds
We grow in the cracks, flashes of green between the flagstones, hands stretched towards an absent sky, roots beneath the creaking asphalt. They call us intruders, weeds, useless brambles, but we know the secret of the soil, the language of suffering land. Our bodies bend under the insults, the steel claws, the fires of oblivion, but in the morning, we are reborn, tireless, stubborn, infinite. We are the brambles, thistles, seeds carried by the wind, hearts beating in the dust, the evergreens, the returnees. Azul Thome - 4th April 2025 Hymne aux adventices
Elles viennent sans bruit, portées par le vent, Surgissant des failles, des pierres et du temps. Ni semées, ni voulues, mais là, souveraines, Fleurs de l’oubli aux racines anciennes. Dans l’ombre des blés ou le creux des pavés, Elles dressent leurs tiges, libres, effrontées. Méprisées, arrachées, mais toujours fidèles, Elles reviennent, têtues, immortelles. Compagnes des friches, gardiennes des sols, Elles murmurent aux terres des secrets trop volés. Quand l’homme déracine, elles recousent le monde, Tissant sous nos pas une force profonde. Ne les nommez plus « mauvaises », écoutez leur chant, Elles sont le désordre, mais le désordre vivant. Azul Thome Avril 2025 |
