"The older we get, the deeper we dig into our childhoods,
Hoping to find the radiant cell
That washed us, and caused our lives
                                                                       to glow in the dark like clock
hands
Endlessly turning toward the future,
Tomorrow, day after tomorrow, the day after that,
                                                             all golden, all in good 
 time"
 
                                from Archaeology
                                                   Charles Wright

 "There's a certain Slant of light,
Winter Afternoons―
That oppresses, like the Heft
Of Cathedral Tunes―"
 
                    from Slant of Light

Hi Cate

I did think the picture was appropriate, it was a very peaceful but very wintery shot I am glad you enjoyed it.

Merry Christmas Guy! I often feel this way the poem describes but did not have such perfect words to describe this searching with!
