”On the floating, shipless oceans

I did all my best to smile

'Til your singing eyes and fingers

Drew me loving to your isle

 

And you sang, "Sail to me, sail to me

Let me enfold you

Here I am, here I am

Waiting to hold you"

- This Mortal Coil -

" Help, I have done it again

I have been here many times before

Hurt myself again today

And, the worst part is there's no-one else to blame

 

Be my friend, hold me

Wrap me up, enfold me

I am small and needy

Warm me up and breathe me

 

Ouch I have lost myself again

Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found

Yeah I think that I might break

Lost myself again and I feel unsafe

 

Be my friend, hold me

Wrap me up, enfold me

I am small and needy

Warm me up and breathe me

Be my friend, hold me

Wrap me up, enfold me

I am small and needy

Warm me up and breathe me.. "

I can only give you love that lasts forever,

And a promise to be near each time you call.

And the only heart I own

For you and you alone

That's all,

That's all...

 

I can only give you country walks in springtime

And a hand to hold when leaves begin to fall;

And a love whose burning light

Will warm the winter's night

That's all,

That's all...

 

There are those I am sure who have told you,

They would give you the world for a toy.

All I have are these arms to enfold you,

And a love time can never destroy.

 

If you're wondering what I'm asking in return, dear,

You'll be glad to know that my demands are small.

Say it's me that you'll adore,

For now and evermore

That's all,

That's all...

 

(Lyrics from Michael Buble - That's All)

I, am the mystery

And I, am the bringer of moonless night

Bear the wisdom arcane

I, harbinger from the burrowed isle

 

Once you break forth

Hearken the flap of my wings

 

Haunt your fears

Though you don't know of my duty to lead

Your path, because I'll take, you home

To rest in my black wings, enfolding you

 

I am the icon sublime

The guide on the voyage, clandestine

Sing the verses bewailed

I, torch of the radiant way

 

Once you step out

Hearken the strokes of my wings

Once you will leave your cocoon

I will be there

 

Haunt your fears

Though you don't know of my duty to lead

Your path, because I'll take, you home

To rest in my black wings, enfolding you

 

And death will smile his barefaced smile

Initiating your final anguish

It is not before my arrival

That you will be lead to feel the natural serenity of leaving this world...

 

Hear my wings caressing the wind

Hear my cry

 

Haunt your fears

Though you don't know of my duty to lead

Your path, because I'll take, you home

To rest in my black wings, enfolding you

I have a heart of gold

So I was told

It remains warm when exposed to cold

A golden heart ‘coz of the love it holds.

 

People affirm I have a heart of gold

Unpossessed by hatred, untouched by fury

Undisturbed by worry, unrestrained by agony

A heart of gold free from grips of misery.

 

The angels sing I have a heart of gold

Nourished by goodness, fostered by kindness

Blessed with grace, filled with brightness

A heart of gold rich with unfathomable happiness.

 

I was born with a heart of gold

A golden heart bigger than the world

Too big, in fact, the sky can’t enfold

A golden heart that ne’er grows old.

How silent is this place

The brilliant sunshine filters through the trees

The leaves are rustled by a gentle breeze

A wild and open space

By shrubs pink-tipped, mauve blossomed o’ergrown

A hush enfolds me, deep as I have known

Unbroken save by distant insects’ drone

A jungle clearing, a track, through which we bear our load to Him

It is our Paradise Road

My Grandmother’s Hands

-MWV-

 

My grandmother's hands, are well farrowed

- we've borrowed a lifetime of her loving care

My grandmother's hands are now clasping

- grasping our laughter from her youthful forays

 

My grandmother's hands are busy

- I'm dizzy watching her shelling peas

Her hands on my cheek would caress me

- bless me forgive me whenever I've wronged

 

My grandmother's lips are now humming

- smile coming reliving her memories once more

My grandmother's eyes closing

- now dozing at rest in her favourite chair

 

My grandmother's hands I would hold them

- enfold them tenderly into my own

My Grandmother's hands, well I miss them

- I'd kiss them and bathe them in my loving tears

And you sang, "Sail to me, sail to me, let me enfold you"

Here I am, here I am waiting to hold you

 

Did I dream you dreamed about me?

Were you hare when I was fox?

Now my foolish boat is leaning

Broken lovelorn on your rocks

 

For you sing, "Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow"

Oh my heart, oh my heart shies from the sorrow

Long afloat on shipless oceans

I did all my best to smile

'Til your singing eyes and fingers

Drew me loving to your isle

And you sang

Sail to me, sail to me

Let me enfold you

Here I am, here I am

Waiting to hold you

I turn the pages and the image enfolds the next journey.

Morning, sweet morning of the arrival. I couldn't explain it. I just hear the birds, the salutation of this beautiful day.

The two towers Garisenda and Asinelli are the traditional symbol of Bologna.

 

Built between 1109 and 1119 at 97.2 meters, The Torre Asinelli is the tallest leaning medieval tower in the world.

 

The Torre Asinelli has a little sister, the Garisenda tower:

 

Despite her noble age and her noticeable lean, you can climb the 498 steps to the top of the Torre Asinelli and enjoy the unique viewpoint and panorama that enfolds before you.

clouds enfold the hills

a river flowing somewhere

singing with the rain

 

half a second at dusk

the hills once again.. become elsewhere :-)

Love - a poem by Khalil Gibran

youtu.be/cGrVOpFTZ94

 

Then said Almitra, "Speak to us of Love."

And he raised his head and looked upon the people, and there fell a stillness upon them.

And with a great voice he said:

 

When love beckons to you, follow him,

Though his ways are hard and steep.

And when his wings enfold you yield to him,

Though the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you.

And when he speaks to you believe in him,

Though his voice may shatter your dreams

as the north wind lays waste the garden.

 

For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you. Even as he is for your growth so is he for your pruning.

Even as he ascends to your height and caresses your tenderest branches that quiver in the sun,

So shall he descend to your roots and shake them in their clinging to the earth.

 

Like sheaves of corn he gathers you unto himself.

He threshes you to make you naked.

He sifts you to free you from your husks.

He grinds you to whiteness.

He kneads you until you are pliant;

And then he assigns you to his sacred fire, that you may become sacred bread for God's sacred feast.

 

All these things shall love do unto you that you may know the secrets of your heart, and in that knowledge become a fragment of Life's heart.

 

But if in your fear you would seek only love's peace and love's pleasure,

Then it is better for you that you cover your nakedness and pass out of love's threshing-floor,

Into the seasonless world where you shall laugh, but not all of your laughter, and weep, but not all of your tears.

Love gives naught but itself and takes naught but from itself.

Love possesses not nor would it be possessed;

For love is sufficient unto love.

 

When you love you should not say, "God is in my heart," but rather, "I am in the heart of God."

And think not you can direct the course of love, for love, if it finds you worthy, directs your course.

 

Love has no other desire but to fulfill itself.

But if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires:

To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night.

To know the pain of too much tenderness.

To be wounded by your own understanding of love;

And to bleed willingly and joyfully.

To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving;

To rest at the noon hour and meditate love's ecstasy;

To return home at eventide with gratitude;

And then to sleep with a prayer for the beloved in your heart and a song of praise upon your lips.

“Each time he walked out through

that old and peeling wooden door,

the darkness imploded in on me

and shook me to my very core

Each time he rolled back in so unexpectedly,

I felt the sun rise in my heart

The light became so bright

there was no room for shadows and the floor

was made for dancing once again

and music played as gently as an angel's harp

and it was just as if the jigsaw

of my patchwork soul no longer tore

because it had beyond all doubt or reason,

found the missing part.” - AP

Эльфийская песня (ELVEN SONG)

 

FroZEN sunlight

warmed by your tender heart

melts softly much to my delight

and gently falls upon the dart

from Eros' bow

his ancient quiver

the aim; the blow

holds true; I shiver

as the cloak of darkness now ascends

enfolds me in soft velvet swathes

the last of evening light descends

'til day and night roll into waves

the deepest ocean is within my reach

the shingled beach shifts easily beneath my feet

Mother nature has so much to teach

and now I have your love I am complete

no longer wandering my beach alone

a hand to guide me; shooting stars abound

I make a wish and learn to skim a stone

I place a message in a bottle that I found

and hope that you will see it

and will care enough to read it

when I look down from here on high

and when I see your smile and know I placed it there

I will whisper on the breeze as gentle as a sigh

so you may hear or feel it just as though my hand

touches you on your shoulder and you will know

that there is more in Heaven and Earth we do not understand

and more to life and love that does not end because we have to go.

Late evening into early night while in Yellowstone waiting for darkness to enfold and reveal the Milky Way.

Love those dark stormy skies moments when Nature recalls to us little humans to respect her...

I felt abit ruderless with my images over the weekend with the famous FFF plus. I couldn't find my anchor. So I just had a play with some of my images instead.

 

Another hike started very early in the morning.... dawn just started to lighten up the sky and enfolded the silhouettes of the Swiss Alps. The light was something between golden, purple and dark blue…. A gorgeous moment in time. What a shame if I had missed it!

 

Hope you like it.

“The voice of the sea is seductive; never ceasing, whispering, clamoring, murmuring, inviting the soul to wander for a spell in abysses of solitude ; to lose itself in mazes of inward contemplation.

 

The voice of the sea speaks to the soul. The touch of the sea is sensuous, enfolding the body in its soft, close embrace.”

― Kate Chopin

The lovely morning sunlight brought this small central leaf to my eye. The surrounding swirl of leaves and grasses seemed to be enfolding, embracing, nurturing. Some remarkable sentiments felt in a very common small space.
