i have been here before



"i have been here before.
but when or how i cannot tell:
i know the grass beyond the door,
the sweet keen smell,
the sighing sound, the lights around the shore."


dante gabriel rossetti sudden light (1854)

  5. hey leks - i'm glad you're here. life - well it's rich, complex, confusing, challenging, loving, damaging. "flow" will rest for a while soon. "the golden fish" has become the place where i can express both the inner and outer stevens quite nicely for now. there's a third blog becoming but i'm not sure when that will happen. it's ready to go but i'm not ready to open it just yet. that's where i have to write at an even deeper level. so we'll see what we see. thanks for the "best". see you. steven

  11. Hi Steven~ The melancholy of memories (Proust). The going home after a long while. And the lighting and spacious sky of the image just opens one up.
    Have you seen Bright Star yet? the bio of Jean Keats? I swear this will be the week-end for me!
    Best, Margaret
