life: acoustic & amplified

poetry, quotes & thoughts about life

love o’ my heart 

  
I will make you brooches 

and toys for your delight

Of bird-song at morning 

and star-shine at night.

I will make a palace fit for you and me

Of green days in forests 

and blue days at sea.

I will make my kitchen, 

and you shall keep your room,

Where white flows the river 

and bright blows the broom,

And you shall wash your linen 

and keep your body white

In rainfall at morning 

and dewfall at night.

And this shall be for music 

when no one else is near,

The fine song for singing, 

the rare song to hear!

That only I remember, 

that only you admire,

Of the broad road that stretches 

and the roadside fire.

I Will Make You Brooches by Robert Louis Stevenson

 

 This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.  
🌸

         – Rumi

  

Kiss me. Kiss me as if it were the last time.  

💋

    – Ilsa Lund, Casablanca
