There was a magical half hour before the sun was completely up, when everything in the pasture was turned to icy sculpture with just a faint glow of sunrise to illuminate everything......
8:30?  Poof!  Gone!

Derek Wolcott

and yesterday

The poet Derek Walcott died on Friday at the age of 87. He is regarded as one of the greatest poets in the English language. In 1992, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature. Walcott was a playwright and a painter. He died at his home on the island of St. Lucia, a place that figured prominently in his work. It's where he published his first poem in a local newspaper at the tender age of 14. 

I'm not sure I totally agree with the sentiment but the poetry is lovely...

LOVE AFTER LOVE

The time will come 
when, with elation 
you will greet yourself arriving 
at your own door, in your own mirror 
and each will smile at the other's welcome, 

and say, sit here. Eat. 
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart 
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you 

all your life, whom you ignored 
for another, who knows you by heart. 
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf, 

the photographs, the desperate notes, 
peel your own image from the mirror. 
Sit. Feast on your life.

So, I found my Mexican ring under an armoire, and since I have been snowed in (again),  I have been busy.
I've been mordanting silk and wool for an upcoming workshop with India Flint and putting many coats on the beauties above before I sculpt the bails and hanging loops so that they can become pendants.
