Things I Didn't Know I Loved*
* If you are a dreamer, come in.
If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar,
A hope-er, a pray-er, a magic bean buyer...
If you're a pretender, come sit by my fire
For we have some flax-golden tales to spin.
Come in! Come in!
(Shel Silverstein)

Pablo Neruda
This man is at least half the reason I'm learning Spanish.
Morning XVVII
'Naked, you are simple as one of your hands,
smooth, earthy, small, transparent, round:
you have moon-lines, apple-paths:
naked, you are slender as a naked grain of wheat.
Naked, you are blue as a night in Cuba;
you have vines and stars in your hair;
naked you are spacious and yellow
as summer in a golden church...'
More.
