A Love Poem, Flowers and Another Love Poem

14 Feb

It’s Valentine’s Day so here, for you all, are two poems and some flowers to share.

This one by e e cummings has been one of our favourites since we met 48 years ago.

i carry your heart

i carry your heart

Here are our daffodils, opening beautifully this morning.

This poem by Wendy Cope has been published for the first time in The Guardian today. I think it is very beautiful. It reminds me of something my Mum used to say, “Every goodbye, even if you are only going shopping should be a proper good one!”

Falmouth, Maritime Museum and Godrevy

20 Jul

1    It was a beautiful sunny day in Falmouth where we met P&V who came over from St Mawes on the ferry.

2    We had a lovely time playing with the remote controlled sailing boats in the Maritime Museum.

3    Try to imagine sitting on the cliffs as the sun sets into the sea and hearing the waves lapping on the shore. Gradually, lights appear on the island and all the while you are listening to a soundscape of beautiful love poems……..  That was us, this evening,  taking part in the Peace Camp 2012, part of the Cultural Olympiad. If you are reading this and are near one of the other installations around the British coast, do try to join in. It is a truly beautiful experience.Wherever you live, you could still download the soundtrack,http://www.peacecamp2012.com/locations/godrevy-head.aspx  enlarge one of my photos, listen and imagine!
