Bare poles, bare trees

"O enter with me the gates of delight, 
The gates of the garden of man's desire, 
Where spirits, touched by heav'nly fire, 
Have planted the trees of life."

(R.S. Bridges from Invocation to music no. 9)
Brussel (B)

“’T was in another lifetime, one of toil and blood
When blackness was a virtue and the road was full of mud
I came in from the wilderness, a creature void of form
“Come in,” she said, “I’ll give you shelter from the storm””

(Bob Dylan in Shelter from the storm)

Some dreams are forgotten between skyscrapers

“Wavering between the profit and the loss
In this brief transit where the dreams cross
The dreamcrossed twilight between birth and dying …”

(T.S. Eliot in Ash-Wednesday)

But the better roads are waiting …

But the better roads are waiting

“Trails of troubles
Roads of battles
Paths of victory
I shall walk

The trail is dusty
And my road it might be rough
But the better roads are waiting
And boys it ain’t far off.”

(Bob Dylan in Paths of victory)
Eben-Emael (B)

4 Signs in the snow

“O snow, in thy soft grave
Sad flow’rs the winter brave;
O heart, so sooth and save,
as does the snow.
The snow must melt, must go,
Fast, fast as water flow.
Not thus, my soul, O sow
Thy gifts to fade like snow.”

(C.A. Elgar in The snow)
