Time present

Sat Oct 10, 2009, 1:48 AM
Autumn has arrived, and my love for poetry stirred once again.

Here are some verses from my favourite poet, T.S.Eliot:


"Time present and time past
Are both perhaps present in time future,
And time future contained in time past.
If all time is eternally present
All time is unredeemable.
What might have been is an abstraction
Remaining a perpetual possibility
Only in a world of speculation.
What might have been and what has been
Point to one end, which is always present.
Footfalls echo in the memory
Down the passage which we did not take
Towards the door we never opened
Into the rose-garden. My words echo
Thus, in your mind."

(BURNT NORTON. No. 1 of 'Four Quartets' )

"
Because I do not hope to turn again
Because I do not hope
Because I do not hope to turn
Desiring this man's gift and that man's scope
I no longer strive to strive towards such things
(Why should the agèd eagle stretch its wings? )
Why should I mourn
The vanished power of the usual reign?"

...

"Because these wings are no longer wings to fly
But merely vans to beat the air
The air which is now thoroughly small and dry
Smaller and dryer than the will
Teach us to care and not to care
Teach us to sit still. "

(Ash wednesday)


That said, I must also mention that I will upload soon some more photos from my trip to Slovenia and Austria, because I've been rather lazy this summer and now that autumn came, I'm in the mood for some photography.

Look him in the eye
Look him in the eye and tell him
I never lived a lie, never took a life,
But surely saved one
:iconoctober27:

By night, Love, tie your heart to mine,
and the two together in their sleep

Your very welcome for the fav, since you don't feel the need to thank some people I have decided to give you back your devi.

I'm sorry, but just because I didn't thank you in the same day, doesn't mean that I do not care or thank people. I do, but some people just don't have the time to stay on the internet that long, as they are busy with exams or other things. I'm sorry if you felt that I didn't care.

I apologize, I was pretty upset with some other issues, and that was pretty childish of me for doing that, and for that I am sorry :handshake:

I am so tired of deviants not taking the time to thank people who fav their art,
I refuse to watch ANY popular deviants or fav their work, as I guess they think their work speaks for it self, so they feel like they don't need to thank anyone, we were lucky they posted it for us to admire, if it were not for us deviants faving their work they wouldn't be so popular now would they ?

Usually, I look to see if the deviant is popular or not & then I go look at their comments to see if they are giving to all that fave their work, a great big thank you.

In your case, I loved that photo & did not check your stats or comments to see if in fact you were one of the above mentioned, again I am very sorry for my actions.

I want to fav great work by unknown deviants, not fav great work from deviants that think they are rock stars & do not care about thanking the people that made them rock stars.

Again my sincere apologies to you...:) ~James

It's alright now.

I'm not even a popular deviant. I've always thanked people, either earlier of later, but lately it's getting hard because this year is full of exams, so... you understand.

So, no worries.
