Love Calls Us To The Things Of This World

 

The eyes open to a cry of pulleys,

And spirited from sleep, the astounded

soul

Hangs for a moment bodiless and

simple

As false dawn.

Outside the open window

The morning air is all awash with

angels.

 

Some are in bed-sheets, some are

in blouses,

Some are in smocks: but truly there

they are.

Now they are rising together in calm

swells

Of halcyon feeling, filling whatever they

wear

With the deep joy of their impersonal

breathing;

 

Now they are flying in place,

conveying

The terrible speed of their

omnipresence, moving

And staying like white water; and now

of a sudden

They swoon down in so rapt a quiet

That nobody seems to be there.

The soul shrinks

 

From all that it is about to remember,

From the punctual rape of every

blessed day,

And cries,

"Oh, let there be nothing on

earth but laundry,

Nothing but rosy hands in the rising

steam

And clear dances done in the sight of

heaven."

 

Yet, as the sun acknowledges

With a warm look the world's hunks

and colors,

The soul descends once more in bitter

love

To accept the waking body, saying now

In a changed voice as the man yawns

and rises,

 

"Bring them down from their ruddy

gallows;

Let there be clean linen for the backs

of thieves;

Let lovers go fresh and sweet to be

undone,

And the heaviest nuns walk in a pure

floating

Of dark habits,

keeping their difficult

balance."

Third visit to see the open exhibition - another amazing collection of art

Charcoal is not my favourite medium - like pastels, it's messy and tends to blur the image. This dragon turned out fairly clear, though, so I'm sharing it.

Pre-dawn photos of Valencia City of Arts and Sciences, I missed the blue hour in the evening because my flight from Sofia landed long after sunset, this place had been on my list of places to photograph for a long time, I tried to make the best of an early morning when some of the buildings were not directly lit. Flickr has been selecting the oddest photos to be on top lately. Anyway, more to come from this morning shoot session.

 

Wiki says:

The City of Arts and Sciences (Valencian: Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciències; Spanish: Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias) is an entertainment-based cultural and architectural complex in the city of Valencia, Spain. It is the most important modern tourist destination in the city of Valencia and one of the most relevant in Spain.

 

The City of Arts and Sciences is situated at the end of the former riverbed of the river Turia, which was drained and rerouted after a catastrophic flood in 1957. The old riverbed was turned into a picturesque sunken park.

 

Designed by Santiago Calatrava and Félix Candela, the project underwent the first stages of construction in July 1996 and the finished "city" was inaugurated April 16, 1998 with the opening of L'Hemisfèric. The last great component of the City of Arts and Sciences, El Palau de les Arts Reina Sofia, was presented on October 9, 2005, Valencian Community Day.
