Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age.
Anais Nin
The second one : Rocking in the Sun
Snuggled around,
fluidly blanketed,
smoothed
and water eroded
they lie
protected.
Amidst some weeds,
and possible
hiding fish,
safe, and away
from the cares
of a world.
But for some
it's about learning
how to live
when
the ebbing starts;
waves
touching and shying away,
leaving you
and yours,
however young and green,
to face bravely,
a drying, pleasant,
yet warm,
sometimes comforting,
morning Sun.

And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.

Dreams are necessary to life.

I will not be just a tourist in the world of images, just watching images passing by which I cannot live in, make love to, possess as permanent sources of joy and ecstasy.

The only abnormality is the incapacity to love.

Wish I had words like that within my soul. Ms. Nin's words...so lovely and the accompanying photos are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteSo well said and so beautifully presented. Thanks for these. They are words I need and images that help me learn the lessons.
