"Long long ago, when I was young and free,

We watched the river flowing,

My old Dad, and me,

Far, far away,

When all the World seemed new,

We talked and hoped our dreams,

Would all come true"

On Saturday afternoon the weather was dry enough (and so was the field) to walk down to the bottom beside the river and get some photos of Mum's snow drops... they're kind of past their best, but I managed to find one clump that were in slightly better condition :)

 

Our Winter has been one with cold wet rain and very little snow... although this morning when I looked out, we did have a little flurry which put a big smile on my face... but it's now turned to yet more rain ugh!

 

Hope you all have a lovely start to this new week and make the best of the extra day we have this year :)

 

Happy Monday folks :)

The Fountain of Arethusa is a natural fountain on the island of Ortygia in the historical centre of the city of Syracuse in Sicily. According to Greek mythology, the fresh water fountain is the place where the nymph Arethusa, the patron figure of ancient Syracuse, returned to earth's surface after escaping from her undersea home in Arcadia.

The fountain is mentioned in a number of works of literature, for instance John Milton’s pastoral elegy Lycidas and his masque Arcades, as well as Alexander Pope’s satire The Dunciad and William Wordsworth's blank verse poem The Prelude. These writers would have known the fountain from references in ancient Roman and Greek sources, such as Virgil's 10th Eclogue and Theocritus' pastoral poem Idylls. Virgil reckons the eponymous nymph as the divinity who inspired bucolic or pastoral poetry. In Moby-Dick, Herman Melville writes that waters from the fountain were said to come from the Holy Land.

The Fountain of Arethusa, the river Ciane, south of Syracuse, and the river Fiume Freddo in the province of Catania are the only places in Europe where papyrus grows.

Mostly non-theistic Friends

The actual meeting house is adjacent to the school, which is pictured above.

# I attended here many Sunday mornings when I lived in Chester County. I went there primarily to meditate, as most of the time there was quiet. There were no priests and near the beginning of the hour someone would very briefly read from a verse from the Bible, but other than that there was no mention of God or Christ, hence the term “non-theistic”. On occasion someone in attendance might stand to say whatever was on their mind, but it was brief and their was no further discussion of the subject.

Meditation was very important to me, as I worked many hours in the week and had thee children who required my attention as well as my house that required constant upkeep.

So, these “meetings” was my time to calm myself and gain a bit of peace. I always came away refreshed. And I still practice meditation at home.

“‘All conditioned things are impermanent’ — when one sees this with wisdom, one turns away from suffering.” The Buddha, Dhammapada, verse 277

Daydream Believer

Mary Beth Maziarz

 

[Verse 1]

Oh, I could hide 'neath the wings

Of the bluebird as she sings

The six o'clock alarm would never ring

But it rings and I rise

Wipe the sleep out of my eyes

My shavin' razor's cold and it stings

 

[Chorus]

Cheer up, sleepy Jean

Oh, what can it mean

To a daydream believer

And a homecoming queen?

Tried Something New ... Tell Me If You See It ;)

 

 

Y'all know what I done's incredible

Probably the reason my funds been plentiful

Better fall back, you bums expendable

I aim down sights, put your lungs in reticles

Come get it, I'm a happily verse

Any half ass rapper that have any balls

Half of em' won't ever get

A fraction the growth braggin' about a bag

But they actually broke

Ship of Fools

World Party

 

[Verse 1]

We're setting sail

To the place on the map from which no one has ever returned

Drawn by the promise of the joker and the fool

By the light of the crosses that burn

Drawn by the promise of the women and the lace

And the gold and the cotton and pearls

It's the place where they keep all the darkness you need

You sail away from the light of the world on this trip baby

 

[Chorus]

Pay, you will pay tomorrow

You're gonna pay tomorrow

You will pay tomorrow

Save me, save me from tomorrow

I don't want to sail with this ship of fools

Notes:

 

Your ship gets broken in two, and you know that you'll be unable to glue it back together again.

 

But in the distance are your gleaming horizons, bright tomorrows.

Op 8 juli 2005 arriveerde Railion 6441 met een viertal fabrieksnieuwe reservebakken VIRM in Amersfoort.

«Поки ми здатні світити й зігрівати одне одного різдвяним світлом, колядою та молитвою, ніяка темрява чи холоднеча нас ніколи не подолає!

Христос народився! Славімо Його!»

«And there were in the same country some shepherds keeping watch over their flock by night in the field. And suddenly an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were filled with great fear. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for behold, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people: For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you: Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, glorifying God, and crying out, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.»

Verse 8-14 Blessed Theophylact of Bulgaria (†1107)

 

«У тій країні були на полі пастухи, що утримували нічну варту біля стада свого. Раптом з'явився їм Ангол Господній, і слава Господня осяяла їх; і злякалися страхом великим. І сказав їм Ангол; не бійтеся; я сповіщаю вам велику радість, яка буде всім людям: бо нині народився вам у місті Давидовому Спаситель, що Христос Господь; і ось вам знак: ви знайдете Немовля в пеленах, що лежить у яслах. І раптом з'явилося з Ангелом численне небесне воїнство, що славить Бога і волає: слава у вишних Богові, і на землі мир, в людей благовоління.»

ст. 8-14 Феофілакт Болгарський, блж. (†1107)

The shape of the book is still well defined. However 150 years of rain, wind and snow have scrubbed away virtually all traces of the inscription. A growing number of stones in these old cemeteries serve only as grave markers as there's no longer any visual reference as to the names of the deceased. Any direct descendants are dead. No one visits these graves or maintains them. And the stones are left to simply wither away. That's where I come in.

I thought this verse was quite appropriate!!!

So yeah this is my version of Gwenom, basically the whole fig was bought off eBay for like £2. Oh and that's Etape put poorly on her wrists, her sides (which were tan coloured) were edited. She will be in my series portrayed as a kind of antihero, enjoy!

 

Comments and Criticism welcomed as per usual! :)

"BEE and the BUTTERFLY"

 

The bee and the butterfly made friends the ant and aphid too,

they danced around the garden delighting me and you,

a hedgehog popped out to see what's all the fuss,

but soon returned after clocking next doors puss,

the fun it kept on coming, the insects had a ball, a robin started singing, a sweetie birdie call.

 

Original poetry ....

by Sean ....

 

Hope you like it! 😊

 

Key: puss > cat

clocking > seeing/spotting

Dutch verse the English.

The Dodge murals consist of 25 paintings on canvas that are attached to the plaster and four decorated areas that were painted directly onto the plaster—the bright blue sections with flags and stars. The murals depict the military history of New York and commemorate battles with the English, the Dutch, the French, the Iroquois, through to the Civil war and World War One. The artist used his daughter Sara as the model for the central figure: the spirit of New York and the Goddess of Harmony—a symbol of both war and peace 131

So, this is the last of my Pip-verse Justice League.... Yup. Totally didn't make a Flash and forget to edit him...

 

(I'll get to it eventually... Maybe.)

 

Anywhoozlesworth, Aquaman. I didn't want to make him all manly and bearded and, ya' know, Thor-like. My goal was to make it look at least somewhat like his classic costume while being modern-looking as well.

 

So, story...

 

I'm thinking he's a marine biologist, 'cuz I don't know Aquaman's original origin. xP While exploring a sunken city he finds a golden trident. Upon pulling it out the city comes back to life and the residents declare him their king, 'cuz he fulfilled some sort of prophecy or whatever.

 

As far as powers, the trident lets him breath underwater, swim at high-speeds, attack fluently in the water and communicate with sea life.

 

Yeah, I like this one. I had a lot of fun coming up with the design and story.

1 Corinthians 1:4-7 NASB

 

I thank my God always concerning you for the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus, that in everything you were enriched in Him, in all speech and all knowledge, just as the testimony concerning Christ was confirmed in you, so that you are not lacking in any gift, as you eagerly await the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Isaiah 58:11 NIV. The LORD will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame.

Walter Northmore

 

Let friends forbear to mourn and weep

While sweetly in the dust we sleep:

This toilsome world we’ve left behind

In heaven a resting place to find

- Peppadew is the trademarked brand name of sweet piquanté peppers (a cultivar of Capsicum baccatum) grown in the Limpopo province of South Africa.

 

For a greater taste sensation the sweet heat of the sweet piquanté peppers is stuffed with the smooth coolness of cream cheese.

 

- Uit Zuid-Afrika komt deze veelzijdige vrucht onder de merknaam Peppadew. Er zijn eindeloos veel mogelijkheden om de zoete pikante peper Peppadew te gebruiken.

 

Voor een sensationele smaakbeleving worden de zoete Peppadew pikante milde pepers gevuld met een verkoelende verse kaas.

Inspired again (by T S Eliot)

Der Wind und der Regen

 

In der Riede wird's dunkel und blind,

von überall grauester Wind

Regen dazu,

nass alles im Nu ...

... aus der Riede fort ist der Wind.

  

------------------------------- Englisch

The wind and the rain

 

In the reedland it's dark and blind,

grayest wind from everywhere

and heavy rain too,

all wet in an instant ...

... and already is gone ... the wind

 

------------------------------- Français

 

Dans les roseaux il fait noir et aveugle,

le vent le plus gris de partout

Il pleut et il pleut

immédiatement, tout est mouillé ...

... loin des roseaux est le vent.

 

------------------------------- Português

O vento e a chuva

 

Na terra dos juncos tornam-se escuros e cegos

vento mais cinza de todos os lugares

chuva forte está caindo

molhou tudo em pouco tempo ...

... o vento se foi dos juncos

 

------------------------------- Español

El viento y la lluvia.

 

En las cañas se pone oscuro y ciego,

Viento gris de todas partes

Lluvia, lluvia,

mojado en un momento ...

... lejos de las cañas está el viento.

In memory of those brave and creative employees whose lives were taken from us during the Charlie Hebdo massacre. May they along with others in France that were murdered at the hands of terrorists in January 2015 rest in peace and never be forgotten.

“Write on the sand when the tide is low,

Seek it again when the waters flow;

Whisper a word when the wind is heard,

And wait until echo repeat the word.”

~ Pollie Morris ~

June 27th, 1874

 

Two of my photos combined. One of a verse from a treasured book the other a shot off the telly - Raymond Blanc's herb garden!

O ME! O life!... of the questions of these recurring;

Of the endless trains of the faithless—of cities fill’d with the foolish;

Of myself forever reproaching myself, (for who more foolish than I, and who more faithless?)

Of eyes that vainly crave the light—of the objects mean—of the struggle ever renew’d;

Of the poor results of all—of the plodding and sordid crowds I see around me;

Of the empty and useless years of the rest—with the rest me intertwined;

The question, O me! so sad, recurring—What good amid these, O me, O life?

 

Answer.

 

That you are here—that life exists, and identity;

That the powerful play goes on, and you will contribute a verse.

 

-- Walt Whitman
