Whatever will be, will be

“On long, serene midsummer days
Of ripening fruit and yellowed grain,
How sweetly, by dim woodland ways,
In tangled hedge or leafy lane,
Fair wild rose thickets, you unfold
Those pale pink stars with hearts of gold!”
- from ‘Wild Roses’ by Edgar Fawcett (1847-1904) #wildflowers

the way the river kept rolling its pebbles
the way the wild wrens sang
though they hadn't a penny in the bank
the way the flowers were dressed
in nothing but light ~

"La mia anima è una misteriosa orchestra;
non so quali strumenti suoni o strida
dentro di me corde e arpe..
Mi conosco come una sinfonia.“
F. Pessoa

"Il violinista sul tetto"
“Un sepalo, un petalo e una spina
in un comune mattino d’estate;
un fiasco di rugiada, un’ape o due,
una brezza,
un frullo in mezzo agli alberi;
ed io sono una rosa!”
—Emily Dickinson
