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."
Richard Wilbur
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.
Vienna is one of the most fascinating capitals in the world in terms of visual arts and architecture. The Habsburgs encouraged and supported the arts with great munificence.

The City of Arts and Sciences is a 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 12 Treasures of Spain.
Designed by Santiago Calatrava and Félix Candela, the project began the first stages of construction in July 1996, and was inaugurated on 16 April 1998 with the opening of L'Hemisfèric.
Triangle Arts Macon spans 4 acres and features five multi-use buildings, two galleries, a dozen mixed-use studio spaces and outdoor venues. It's a wonderful place for people from all walks of life to come explore creative works and experience local and regional artists.
Der Pont des Arts (deutsch Brücke der Künste) ist eine Fußgängerbrücke über die Seine in Paris, die den Quai François-Mitterrand (ehemals: Quai du Louvre) im 1. Arrondissement am rechten Ufer mit dem Quai de Conti im 6. Arrondissement am linken Ufer verbindet. Er verläuft damit genau auf einer Achse zwischen dem Mittelpunkt des Cour Carrée des Louvre, dem von ihm zum Seineufer führenden Torbogen und dem Institut de France auf der anderen Seite. Er ist die erste Brücke unterhalb der Île de la Cité und des Pont Neuf. Auf den Pont des Arts folgt flussabwärts der Pont du Carrousel. (Wikipedia)

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.

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.
