“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
May, queen of blossoms,
And fulfilling flowers,
With what pretty music
Shall we charm the hours?
Wilt thou have pipe and reed,
Blown in the open mead?
Or to the lute give heed
In the green bowers.
Lord Edward Thurlow
We are stardust
Billion year old carbon
We are golden
Caught in the devil’s bargain
And we’ve got to get ourselves
Back to the garden

How does the Meadow flower its bloom unfold?
Because the lovely little flower is free
Down to its root, and in that freedom bold.
William Wordsworth
What ye have been ye still shall be, When we are dust the dust among, O yellow flowers!
Austin Dobson
