as in real life itself.”

“Any road followed precisely to its end leads precisely nowhere.
Climb the mountain just a little bit to test it's a mountain.
From the top of the mountain, you cannot see the mountain.”

But Villain Mood May Even High-Jack the Eye!“You will find poetry nowhere
unless you bring some of it with you.”
Joseph Joubert
Don't let it!
Refuse to board the train of recrimination
when it slides into your station.
Standing with doors open
inviting us inside.
But it only goes
to the end of the line,
never really seeing
the glories
as they skip
and sing past,
oblivious to all
"stinkin` thinkin`"
as we ought to be.
Eat the ice cream!
Cut the cake!
That we save goes mouldy
so dance like
today's the
Day
!

From the top of the mountain, you cannot see the mountain - well said.
ReplyDeleteI wish friends to reach mountains heights in life And with head high watch them proudly.
nice sky..
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing as beautiful as nature. :)
ReplyDeleteLet others climb mountains I will stay where the ground is tillable that i can grow the wheat to make the cake. I'll save the climbers a piece or two if they bring the ice to make ice cream back with them.
ReplyDeleteNow I feel like dancing!
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday.

....Why, today IS the day, dear Cloudia! The only one we've got. Sometimes I forget that!

ReplyDeleteMustn't let the cake grow moldy!!! I loved the pictures and the quotes and the poetry. Thanks for a great start to another wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteSome say that you can't see the wood for the trees, and that's so very true. We do miss many beautiful things around us - trees especially.
ReplyDeleteAn excellent post. Alhoa...
...and who are you saving your best towels for? I'll have some cake, please!
ReplyDeleteI'm doing a jig right now.
