the oak ...
Originally uploaded by jude

"... Live thy Life,
Young and old,
Like yon oak,
Bright in spring,
Living gold;
 
Summer-rich
Then; and then
Autumn-changed
Soberer-hued
Gold again.
 
All his leaves
Fall'n at length,
Look, he stands,
Trunk and bough
Naked strength ..."

the titmouse ...
Originally uploaded by jude

"... Why are not diamonds black and gray,
To ape thy dare-devil array?
And I affirm, the spacious North
Exists to draw thy virtue forth.
I think no virtue goes with size;
The reason of all cowardice
Is, that men are overgrown,
And, to be valiant, must come down
To the titmouse dimension ..."

one of the ones that midas touched ...

Posted on November 2, 2007 by Judith Meskill

"... The splendor of a Burmah
The Meteor of Birds,
Departing like a Pageant
Of Ballads and of Bards --
 
I never thought that Jason sought
For any Golden Fleece
But then I am a rural man
With thoughts that make for Peace --
 
But if there were a Jason,
Tradition bear with me
Behold his lost Aggrandizement
Upon the Apple Tree -- ..."

where the place called morning lies ...

Posted on November 1, 2007 by Judith Meskill

"... Will there really be a "Morning"?
Is there such a thing as "Day"?
Could I see it from the mountains
If I were as tall as they?
 
Has it feet like Water lilies?
Has it feathers like a Bird?
Is it brought from famous countries
Of which I have never heard?
 
Oh some Scholar! Oh some Sailor!
Oh some Wise Men from the skies!
Please to tell a little Pilgrim
Where the place called "Morning" lies! ..."

Originally uploaded by jude

"... Eden is that old-fashioned House
We dwell in every day
Without suspecting our abode
Until we drive away.
 
How fair on looking back, the Day
We sauntered from the Door -
Unconscious our returning,
But discover it no more ..."
