L’Invitation au Voyage

Mon enfant, ma sœur,

Songe à la douceur

D’aller là-bas vivre ensemble !

Aimer à loisir,

Aimer et mourir

Au pays qui te ressemble !

Les soleils mouillés

De ces ciels brouillés

Pour mon esprit ont les charmes

Si mystérieux

De tes traîtres yeux,

Brillant à travers leurs larmes.

Là, tout n’est qu’ordre et beauté,

Luxe, calme et volupté.

Des meubles luisants,

Polis par les ans,

Décoreraient notre chambre ;

Les plus rares fleurs

Mêlant leurs odeurs

Aux vagues senteurs de l’ambre,

Les riches plafonds,

Les miroirs profonds,

La splendeur orientale,

Tout y parlerait

À l’âme en secret

Sa douce langue natale.

Là, tout n’est qu’ordre et beauté,

Luxe, calme et volupté.

Vois sur ces canaux

Dormir ces vaisseaux

Dont l’humeur est vagabonde ;

C’est pour assouvir

Ton moindre désir

Qu’ils viennent du bout du monde.

– Les soleils couchants

Revêtent les champs,

Les canaux, la ville entière,

D’hyacinthe et d’or ;

Le monde s’endort

Dans une chaude lumière.

Là, tout n’est qu’ordre et beauté,

Luxe, calme et volupté.

As seen on a path in Epping Forest.

Given a coloured pencil treatment.

The path along this part is very stony, there's a good reason, the ground here can be very boggy..

薩埵峠から富士山と駿河湾

It was fine weather of the end of Golden Week holidays.

This sight is at the observatory of Satta Path in my hometown.

GW終盤は天気も良かったので、

地元、清水区の薩埵峠から見た富士山の写真です。

道路は東名高速と国道1号線、

そしてJR東海道線がここを通過します。

突風で海は荒れていました。

One is light, one is dark. The golden path leads right between them. Two sides of the same aspect. Can there exist anything with only one side?

Winding through the towering Coast Redwoods, a serene path awaits in Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park, nestled in Northern California.

Lovely encounter on a walk last weekend. The weather wasn't as nice as I had hoped and it was almost too dark for photos but luckily the squirrel sat on the path where the light was slightly better than under the trees of the forest.
