From Deeper Within To Safely Out

”I’ve listened: and all the sounds I heard
Were music,—wind, and stream, and bird.
With youth who sang from hill to hill
I’ve listened: my heart is hungry still.

I’ve looked: the morning world was green;
Bright roofs and towers of town I’ve seen;
And stars, wheeling through wingless night.
I’ve looked: and my soul yet longs for light.

I’ve thought: but in my sense survives
Only the impulse of those lives
That were my making. Hear me say
‘I’ve thought!’—and darkness hides my day.”

~~ Siegfried Sassoon

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.

Come Out!
Come Out!
Wherever you are!

I think Siegfried moved to A Little Bit South Of Saskatoon after his war years.

This is why you are called Shads.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

Myself being the least poetical minded person on earth, I must admit that no poetry can spoil or affect the joy and delight of this perfect image...:)
Both undersigned come running to catch up with you and we have a good chance since you are busy with them books of poetry as we do not waste a minute! :)

If you stare at an orange juice container because it says, "CONCENTRATE"...you might be a redneck.

Image/compostion and poem perform a perfect match.

Not your usual style, but a very creative posting too John. Very well done!

Regards, Cornelius.
