My Favourite Poem at the moment

Silent friend of many distances, feel how your breath enlarges all of space. Let your presence ring out like a bell into the night. What feeds upon your face grows mighty from the nourishment thus offered. Move through transformation, out and in. What is the deepest loss that you have suffered? If drinking is bitter, change yourself to wine. In this immeasurable darkness, be the power that rounds your senses in their magic ring, the sense of their mysterious encounter. And if the earthly no longer knows your name, whisper to the silent earth: I'm flowing. To the flashing water say: I am.

"Love"..... Well actually "Leaves"..... Specifically "Falling Leaves"..... But more to the point:..... "Love and Falling Leaves".

This would have to be the most inspiring photo.

I love Luis Gonzalez Palma





Also tell me what you think of this poem:


Once again they fall;

one by one by one

a curtain, a river of leaves

suited up in silence and in yellow.


Out in the garden

the swing trembles

no longer protected by a shade

or broken shadows.


But looking up now

through the bare limbs of recent loss

that once bestowed splendid dictation

I see the birds.
