Inspiration



I hear beyond the range of sound,
I see beyond the range of sight,
New earths and skies and seas around,
And in my day the sun doth pale his light.

A clear and ancient harmony
Pierces my soul through all its din,
As through its utmost melody--
Farther behind than they, farther within.

[from INSPIRATION by Henry David Thoreau]

Oh, how WONDERFUL! I am a New Yorker, born and raised and I love these photos of my city. I think you have inspired me to post one of my own today!

Thank you for sharing and to Dr. John for finding your gem of a blog!
