at holiday time...

PASSING THOUGHT:
At holiday time,
I seem to seek a splinter or two of Emily Dickenson...
quite content to drift from thought to feeling...
I see worlds through the eyes of other travellers...
I explore random ideas...
I feel little compulsion to join crowds...

hope is the thing with feathers...

No matter Emily Dickenson's subject, there is always a calming force in all that she writes...a slowing down...a reflection...

a chat with Emily D?...

While not strictly labelled 'philosopher', it can't be denied that Emily Dickenson's poetry has a strong undercurrent of philosophy. So I would choose Emily Dickenson. I can imagine she would be a little reticent, but, as I am a little socially shy too, I think we could connect.

swirling waters...

and in the frothy
honeycomb
I thought that I could see
the wonder of your eyes
staring back at me https://t.co/9QyGmeQtgZ

to read is...

To read is to appreciate worlds that have gone before (Ken Follett) and worlds that may yet come...(Margaret Atwood and Ray Bradbury). Then there are the worlds that are timeless...(Emily Dickinson and Michael Dransfield)... Shakespeare seems to have all these worlds in hand... https://t.co/J31ueu5yo3

water has many faces...

water has many faces
sometimes living as a lake
a spring, a creek, a river or sea
a wild flood or ephemeral wetland
I select the waters I am

Hope is a thing with feather...

Emily Dickinson's poem gets an eerily refreshing upbeat...

pink robin...

My soul place is Tasmania...

even though I only lived in the north, in the Liffey area, for a couple of years...

(not far from Bob Brown's place at the time)...

But now, I feel a craving to return...who knows...

'The robin is the one
That speechless from her nest
Submits that home and certainty
And sanctity are best.' - Emily Dickinson
The poem refers to the red robin, but the lines capture beautifully the elusive, the private nature of the pink robin that I only saw once - in Tassie https://t.co/Mqwvc18GRE
