Mother’s Day Looms

Here it comes. Truth to tell, I do not like Mother’s Day.

William Meyers’ Street Photography

The eye never has enough of seeing. Ecclessiastes 1:8   What is the point of having a weblog if I can’t talk about things I like? One of them is the photography of William Meyers.

Its dignity lies in what Jacques Maritain called creative intuition: “that intercommunication between the inner being of things and the inner being of the human Self which is a kind of divination.” Poems originate in the individual self; myth commences in communal instinct, the collective Self.buy Continue Reading
