{Day}dream


Your shirt smells like safety
Warm, sweet, sunlight trapped between the threads
A piece of summer in winter, autumn leaves with the scent of spring
I breathe in deep -at first a shy sniff
But then you lay my head on your chest
And I breathed you in, my heart racing yet content
But then I woke up
Yet the mirage of you still lingers...

This Week in Music: Sara Bareilles and The Blessed Unrest



Sara, Sara, Sara. You did it again. Another album worth listening to from the first track up to the last. The best songs speak the truth, like any form of writing or art, and Sara, you are a master storyteller. I can feel your truth in every song. Enough said ( and just listen to the album).

Personal favorites: Island, Manhattan, Chasing the Sun, December, Beautiful Girl, and I Wanna Be Like Me

Love in the Time of LOTR

Eowyn and Faramir. Image from here.

"Do not scorn pity that is a gift of a gentle heart, Eowyn! But I do not offer you my pity. For you are a lady high and valiant and have yourself won renown that shall not be forgotten; and you are a lady beautiful, I deem, beyond even the words of the Elven-tongue to tell. And I love you. Once I pitied your sorrow. But now, were you sorrowless, without fear or any lack, were you the blissful Queen of Gondor, still I would love you. Eowyn, do you not love me?"

(The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, JRR Tolkien)
