* Detalle de “El Gran Canal”. “La Riva del vin” (La Ribera del vino). Venecia.

* La Riva del vin circunda el Gran Canal desde el Puente de Rialto hasta la iglesia de San Silvestre en el lado del sestiere de San Polo. Es uno de los pocos tramos del Gran Canal flanqueado por recorridos peatonales. El nombre deriva del hecho de que en este lugar comenzaron a llegar y a amarrar barcos cargados de vino, una costumbre que se prolongó hasta casi mediados del siglo XIX.

Evocaremos aquellos versos del romántico José Zorrilla (poeta del s. XIX) en estos fragmentos de su canto:

…Allí está, Venecia, la dueña opulenta

de antiguos y nobles y libres blasones,

Venecia la hermosa, la villa que cuenta

que a sueldo tenía soberbias naciones,

señora del mar.

Que cuenta que un día imperios y reyes

su gala envidiaron, su nombre temieron,

y el mar y la tierra besaron sus leyes,

y enviáronle buques, soldados le dieron;

porque ella supiera batirse y triunfar.

Un día a sus ojos la tierra callaba,

un día su nombre la tierra llenaba.

…

¡Reír, cantar, beber, corta es la vida!

Reír, hasta que seca la garganta

niega paso a la voz enronquecida;

cantar, hasta que el alba se levanta,

que yace en el Adriático dormida.

¡Opulenta Venecia, ríe y canta,

ríe y canta, señora de los mares,

que la risa y la voz cubren el llanto;

y mientras roe el tiempo tus pilares,

y deslustra la lluvia el áureo manto,

risa y juego y festines y cantares,

rueden las horas del dolor en tanto...

(JOSÉ ZORRILLA. A Venecia.)

You have to guess the crossword of Life

Me? I'm trying to compose a puzzle about it

Life in illusion I refuse

I have a sense of reality in myself.

Žít v iluzi odmítám

Smysl pro realitu v sobě mám.

El amante, el poeta y el místico encuentran una satisfacción más plena que la que pueden llegar a conocer quienes buscan el poder, puesto que aquéllos pueden retener al objeto de su amor, mientras que el ávido de poder tiene que embarcarse continuamente en alguna nueva manipulación para no sufrir un sentimiento de vaciedad. Cuando llegue mi último día, no sentiré que he vivido en vano. He visto la tierra con los reflejos rojizos del poniente, el brillo del rocío por la mañana, y la nieve brillando bajo un sol aterido; he olido la lluvia después de la sequía, y he oído al tormentoso Atlántico golpear contra las graníticas costas de Cornwall. La ciencia puede otorgar estos y otros goces a más personas que las que podrían disfrutarlos sin su ayuda. Si es así, su poder se aplicará a un uso sensato. Pero cuando elimina de la vida los momentos a los que ésta debe sus valores, la ciencia no merece admiración, por grande que sea su astucia y refinamiento para llevar a los hombres por el camino hacia la desesperanza.

J'ai capté cette fleur près de la rivière Nicolet tout près du Jardin Botanique de Kingsey Falls au Québec.

Je croyais que c'était une jonquille mais avec ma recherche j'ai constaté que c'était: " Le Narcisse des poètes."

Le Narcisse des poètes est une plante vivace à bulbe. Souvent cultivée par les amateurs de belles fleurs, elle pousse aussi spontanément dans les prairies humides de montagne.

Merci de vos visites, commentaires et favoris !

Thank you for your visits, comment's and favorites !

This shot is taken from the Church of San Pietro in Porto Venere. The gulf is so named because it inspired the likes of Byron, Shelley, Dante, and Petrarch.

It inspired me too, but I decided not to swim across the bay like Byron did in 1822 for a rendezvous with Shelley.

Note: The bay is actually behind me. This photo is looking out into the Mediterranean toward's Byron's Grotto.

Happy shooting!

Este puente es el más moderno de la ciudad de Zamora. Su curva lo hace ser original, aunque su importancia radica en que une dos orillas y da una perspectiva diferente de la ciudad.

This is the delightful Newstead Abbey in Nottinghamshire. Best know as the ancestral home of Lord Byron (1808-1814). Byron was an English poet and politician. The Abbey is believed to date from the late 12 century and is one of my favourite local places.

CARTA AO MAR

Deixa escrever-te, verde mar antigo,

Largo Oceano, velho deus limoso,

Coração sempre lírico, choroso,

E terno visionário, meu amigo!

Das bandas do poente lamentoso

Quando o vermelho sol vai ter contigo,

– Nada é mais grande, nobre e doloroso,

Do que tu, – vasto e húmido jazigo!

Nada é mais triste, trágico e profundo!

Ninguém te vence ou te venceu no mundo!...

Mas também, quem te pôde consolar?!

Tu és Força, Arte, Amor, por excelência! –

E, contudo, ouve-o aqui, em confidência;

– A Música é mais triste inda que o Mar!

YOU'RE REAL STRENGTH

ONLY BECOMES APPARENT WHEN

This is the work of the leading colonial architect of the time in Van Diemen's Land, John Lee Archer in 1847. Archer had worked on many projects, but is perhaps most famous for the Tasmanian Parliament House and the Ross Bridge (although there he was clearly trumped by the stonemason/artist Daniel Herbert). Archer had moved to Circular Head when Governor John Franklin, who had followed Archer's great patron Governor Arthur, abolished the position of colonial architect. He accepted a position of magistrate and helped design the streetscape for Stanley which was officially gazetted in 1842.

According to local legend, Archer built this house in 1847 for one of King George IV's illegitimate sons. However that arrangement fell through and so Archer himself lived there with his family until his death in 1852.

In the 1850s it became a private school and schoolmaster's residence, the first in Stanley. The name "Poet's Cottage" is actually quite late. An owner in the 1970s, the photographer Marguerite Close (1921-2013), named it after her second husband, the Tasmanian poet Lin Eldridge (1924-?). catalogue.nla.gov.au/Record/100227?lookfor=author:%22Eldr...{author-cluster:%22Eldridge,%20Lin,%201924-%22}&offset=2&max=2

Fittingly, it is now occupied by the great granddaughter of Edward Curr of the Van Diemen's Land Company (who built Highfield in 1826).

El sábado 9 de abril de 2016, en la ciudad de Luján -Provincia de Buenos Aires- se develó una escultura en honor del luchador, poeta y herrero Dardo Sebastián Dorronzoro, a 38 años de su desaparición a manos de la dictadura militar.

La escultura, que fue emplazada en la rotonda que lleva el nombre del poeta (ubicada en Fray Manuel de Torres y Gogna, en el Barrio lujanense Champagnat), fue realizada por Osvaldo Caldú. Realizada en hierro forjado y de grandes dimensiones, la obra, inspirada en el poema “Declaración Jurada”, de Dorronzoro, representa una mano empuñando una pluma de tinta, emergiendo de un yunque.

ALL IMAGES ARE BEST seen On Black, yours too!

Spring had sprung, everything bursting and unfurling; fresh green everywhere.

A beautiful long tree lined lane leading to a mansion would make a perfect shot… if I was conventional.

I decided I wanted something different, and walked around the majestic trunks, in the field, and photographed the ‘outside’, where the branches grew un-thinned and more wild.

I love the patterns and think the delicate green looks very romantic, poetic.

Have a wonderful day and thank you for viewing and commenting, Magda, (*_*)
