I will sing you morning lullabies
You are beautiful and peaceful this way
I know you have to close your eyes on everyone
Let me help you, I'll sing you to sleep
With morning lullabies
I love cats. So much. But my dad won't let me have one D:
"If I could give you three things,
I would give you these:
Song and laughter and a wooden home
In the shining seas
chorus:
When you see old Isle au Haut
Rising in the dawn,
You will play in yellow fields
In the morning sun.
Sleep where the wind is warm
And the moon is high.
Give sadness to the stars,
Sorrow to the sky.
(chorus)
Do you hear what the sails are saying
In the wind's dark song?
Give sadness to the wind,
Blown alee and gone.
(chorus)
Sleep now, the moon is high,
And the wind blows cold;
For you are sad and young
And the sea is old.
(chorus)"
From "Isle Au Haut Lullaby" by Gordon Bok
(This song, if you are interested, is on Gordon Bok's beautiful "Turning Towards the Morning" CD.)
The rumors flew, but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind
Until the night
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away his memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Clinging to his picture for dear life
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby
It has been too long! I had so much to say here that I unfortunately forgot it all.
This photo was taken for an assignment and I was able to go the conceptual route for the first time YAY, which was pretty great. Photoshop, however, despised me throughout the entire process and it's a wonder this is even finished haha.
This photo by Tim Walker was the inspiration :)
P.S. If any of you are in the London area, a photo of mine is going to be on display at Chalk House Gallery from November 29th to January 11th!
Also, a book cover I created for the wonderful Chiara Gamberale came out yesterday, take a peek! :)
…Okay, maybe I didn't forget everything ;) I hope you guys are doing well! Sending the biggest hugs you can imagine ♥ ♥ ♥

Found this old tune that perfectly fits with my current mood.
Je viens de retrouver cet air un peu vieux mais qui colle parfaitement a mon humeur actuelle.

Lay your sleeping head, my love,
Human on my faithless arm;
Time and fevers burn away
Individual beauty from
Thoughtful children, and the grave
Proves the child ephemeral:
But in my arms till break of day
Let the living creature lie,
Mortal, guilty, but to me
The entirely beautiful.
Soul and body have no bounds:
To lovers as they lie upon
Her tolerant enchanted slope
In their ordinary swoon,
Grave the vision Venus sends
Of supernatural sympathy,
Universal love and hope;
While an abstract insight wakes
Among the glaciers and the rocks
The hermit’s carnal ecstasy.
Certainty, fidelity
On the stroke of midnight pass
Like vibrations of a bell,
And fashionable madmen raise
Their pedantic boring cry:
Every farthing of the cost,
All the dreaded cards foretell,
Shall be paid, but from this night
Not a whisper, not a thought,
Not a kiss nor look be lost.
Beauty, midnight, vision dies:
Let the winds of dawn that blow
Softly round your dreaming head
Such a day of welcome show
Eye and knocking heart may bless,
Find the mortal world enough;
Noons of dryness find you fed
By the involuntary powers,
Nights of insult let you pass
Watched by every human love.
Lullaby
W. H. Auden, 1907 - 1973
🎵 I'd bottle the feelin' you give me
And shelve that stuff for years to come

Ain't no storm that lasts forever
Ain't no chains that can't be freed
So I sing for all the dreamers
For the lost who long for peace
Sing me a sinner's lullaby
Soft and sweet 'neath a moonlit sky
Rock me easy, rock me slow
Let the melody heal my soul
No regrets, no goodbye
Just a sinner's lullaby

Straight from the camera.
Done in collaboration with missmoody.
After crawling around in a pitch black, cold and moist cave, I decided this photo either works out with only one take or not at all... Luckily it turned out just the way I hoped! :)
It was wonderful sunset adventure with my good flickrfriends Manuela, Gudrun, Stefan and Jon on Roßtrappe - but stormy like you wouldn't believe....
...
The Roßtrappe is a 403-metre-high (1,322 ft) granite crag in the Harz mountains of central Germany.
According to legend, a giant once followed the king’s beautiful daughter, Brunhilde, whom he wanted to marry against her will. Brunhilde escaped on a white stallion (German: Ross), but was suddenly confronted by a deep ravine. Her horse leapt in one bound to the rocks on the other side, but her pursuer fell into the depths below. The impression of the horse’s hoof may still be seen today.
Scientists suspect that this imprint in the rock is the weathered remains of a Germanic altar basin. (Wikipedia)
