Splendour In The Grass

What though the radiance

which was once so bright

Be now for ever taken from my sight,

Though nothing can bring back the hour

Of splendour in the grass,

of glory in the flower;

We will grieve not, rather find

Strength in what remains behind;

In the primal sympathy

Which having been must ever be;

In the soothing thoughts that spring

Out of human suffering;

In the faith that looks through death,

In years that bring the philosophic mind.

 

William Wordsworth

Beautiful picture. And thanks for the Wordsworth. Our literature holds much beauty that is too seldom heard. And often it works so well with photographs.

 

Thanks.

Brent -

 

Almost magical. Too bad most of us only know the Wordsworth from a quote and title of a second rate movie.

Brent, dare I say it, there's something Spiritual in this image.
