FLAKES OF LIGHT

New panel 'FLAKES OF THE LIGHT'

Today, a misty autumn morning this panel and the poem below seem to resonate particularly for me...


A poem by the Spanish poet Juan Ramon Jimenez (24 December 1881–29 May 1958)

I have a feeling that my boat
has struck, down there in the depths,
against a great thing.
And nothing
happens! Nothing...Silence...Waves
-Nothing happens? Or has everything happened,
and we are standing now, quietly, in the new life?
