Entry: Ruskin Jun 20, 2009



No matter how many times I read,but every time, I read them-Ruskin's poems I mean,I feel I am standing under a waterfall.

One of my most favorites :

Dare to dream

Build castles in air,
but first,give them foundations.
Hold fast to all your dreams,
Make perfect your creations.

All glory come to those who dare.

Failed works are sad lame things.
Act impeccably,sing
Your own song, but do not take
Another's song from him or her
Look for your art within,
You'll find your own true gift,
For you are special too.
And if you try,you'll find
there's nothing you can't do.

While I was looking for "The tale of the Rose" at a bookstore,I stumbled across this "fairy stencil book",Yes,stencils to draw fairies.And I have been given my childhood back.Colors,fairies,butterflies,flowers,beautiful papers-it miught be a dreamland.

Colors,fairies,butterflies,flowers,beautiful papers-it might be a dreamland.

The poems,posies,play,move in circles around a kid and then fall down intentionally, to symbolizing the fun.

Do you now see any relation?

You talked about "The tale of the Rose". Well i referred to good old sweet "Tale of Rosy".

Any good now?

Uffffff

Ring around the rosy,
A pocket full of posies;
ashes, ashes
we all fall down!
