My grandfather turned 94 last week. He always said this to my sister and I to wake us up in the mornings. (“Up, up! Said the fox to the hare, can’t you hear the hunters calling?”)

And your very flesh shall be a great poem.

Let me not worry or furrow my brow.
Let me trust that all is meant to be and will be as it should be.
Let me love without fear and without fury.
Let me take things as they come.
Let us be.
Together.

Whoever embraces a woman is Adam. The woman is Eve.
Everything happens for the first time.
I saw something white in the sky. They tell me it is the moon, but
what can I do with a word and a mythology.
Trees frighten me a little. They are so beautiful.
The calm animals come closer so that I may…

you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing
Quote reblogged from so sesquipedalian.
If by dull rhymes our English must be chain’d,
And, like Andromeda, the Sonnet sweet
Fetter’d, in spite of pained loveliness,
Let us find out, if we must be constrain’d,
Sandals more interwoven and complete
To fit the naked foot of Poesy:
Let us inspect the Lyre, and weigh the stress
Of every chord, and see what may be gain’d
By ear industrious, and attention meet;
Misers of sound and syllable, no less
Than Midas of his coinage, let us be
Jealous of dead leaves in the bay wreath crown;
So, if we may not let the Muse be free,
She will be bound with garlands of her own.
Quote reblogged from since feeling is first with 121 notes
dive for dreams
or a slogan may topple you
(trees are their roots
and wind is wind)
trust your heart
if the seas catch fire
(and live by love
though the stars walk backward)
honour the past
but welcome the future
(and dance your death
away at this wedding)
never mind a world
with its villains or heroes
(for god likes girls
and tomorrow and the earth)
