metaphysical_plums: January 2013
http://samaubrey.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 26, 2013. And Yet the Books by Czeslaw Milosz. And yet the books will be there on the shelves, separate beings,. That appeared once, still wet. As shining chestnuts under a tree in autumn,. And, touched, coddled, began to live. In spite of fires on the horizon, castles blown up,. Tribes on the march, planets in motion. 8220;We are, ” they said, even as their pages. Were being torn out, or a buzzing flame. Licked away their letters. So much more durable. Than we are, whose frail warmth.

metaphysical_plums: Screens
http://samaubrey.blogspot.com/2012/12/screens.html
Monday, December 17, 2012. Metal mesh that keeps out bugs. I can handle those;. But we've invented new screens,. Backlit backdrop desktops,. And we use them not as breezeways. I'm guilty too, so please don't think. I wrote this as a critique of just you. My screen can dim in darkness,. Careful not to keep my roommate up at night. A cursor blinks ready for swift fingers. To send it whizzing through pages,. Faster than I flip through books anymore. It has seen the profane, taken part in tainting. December ...

metaphysical_plums: August 2012
http://samaubrey.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 20, 2012. There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,. There is a rapture on the lonely shore,. There is society, where none intrudes,. By the deep sea, and music in its roar:. I love not man the less, but Nature more,. From these our interviews, in which I steal. From all I may be, or have been before,. To mingle with the Universe, and feel. What I can ne'er express, yet cannot all conceal". Pond in the woods" by Georgia O'keeffe. Saturday, August 11, 2012. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

metaphysical_plums: A River Runs Through It
http://samaubrey.blogspot.com/2012/12/a-river-runs-through-it.html
Thursday, December 20, 2012. A River Runs Through It. I remember the last sermon I ever heard my father give, not long before his own death:. Each one of us here today will, at one time in our lives, look upon a loved one in need and ask the same question: We are willing Lord, but what, if anything, is needed? We can love—completely—even without complete understanding. Eventually all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was cut by the earth’s great flood and runs over the r...

metaphysical_plums: China
http://samaubrey.blogspot.com/2012/12/china.html
Friday, December 21, 2012. I hope for them to be well loved in my house, which I daily dream of decorating and cooking in. I can picture sitting around the table in a few years, sipping some Earl Grey with girlfriends and eating crepes or waffles or fresh fruit and scones. For now, they will join my strawberry yogurt glasses and other odds and ends that are wanting a place of their own in my future abode. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.
