I seriously heart this already.

ooooohhhhh love love...
I love this poem; it's in fact very special. Joel's father gave it to me b/c he knew I loved Rilke and he loved this poem since he was a young man. He couldn't find it in a poetry collection until recently and gave me this gorgeous old book for Christmas. It was the very first poem. Later, as a gift to him, I made a photography book set to the words.
I know a different translation, though.
"I live my life in widening rings
which spread over earth and sky.
I may not ever complete the last one,
but that is what I will try.
I circle around God's primordial tower,
and I circle ten thousand years long;
And I still don't know if I'm a falcon,
a storm, or an unfinished song."
This is certainly no coincidence, soul friend.
OK,must have....!
must have already!
Can't wait to see the finished piece. :)
Oh dear, LOVE it!!
Ladies -
Thank you so so so much!!
This is the back half of the reserved bee and peony clutch from a few weeks back!
I cannot wait to show you the finished piece, either :)
xoxoxo
It is such a small world. I recently did a custom piece based on this poem also. It's so lovely.
Beautiful work as always. <3
I love this. Just beautiful.
OH.
MY.
GOD.
