To see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour.

Lovely Water, Thirsty Ground!
Lovely large swollen rain drops were clinging to these pine needles this morning. Such a change from our dry, dry summer. Makes me appreciate great poets who look so deeply and ponder, then choose simple beautiful words to perfectly paint a thought...like William Blake's opening verse (to a VERY long poem):
To see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour.
To see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour.
