un museo di new york
We do not know. But they know.
The stones know. Even trees
Know.
And they remember.
They remember who named the mountains
And rivers,
Who constructed the former
Cities.
Who gave the names
To the immemorial countries—Words unknown to us—
They are filled with meaning!
Everything is filled with achievements.Everywhere
Heroes passed. “To know” —
Is a sweet word. “To remember” —
Is a terrible word. To know and
To remember, to remember and to knowMeans—to have faith.
The stones know. Even trees
Know.
And they remember.
They remember who named the mountains
And rivers,
Who constructed the former
Cities.
Who gave the names
To the immemorial countries—Words unknown to us—
They are filled with meaning!
Everything is filled with achievements.Everywhere
Heroes passed. “To know” —
Is a sweet word. “To remember” —
Is a terrible word. To know and
To remember, to remember and to knowMeans—to have faith.

corso di ikebana
Ikebana (生け花 o いけばな) è l'arte giapponese della disposizione dei fiori recisi, anticamente conosciuta come Kadō (華道 o 花道).
La traduzione letterale della parola Ikebana è 'fiori viventi', ma l'arte dei fiori può essere anche indicata come Kadō, cioè 'via dei fiori', intendendo cammino di elevazione spirituale secondo i principi dello Zen.

beatrice portinari
Tanto gentile e tanto onesta pare
la donna mia, quand'ella altrui saluta,
ch'ogne lingua devèn, tremando, muta,
e li occhi no l'ardiscon di guardare.
Ella si va, sentendosi laudare,
benignamente d'umiltà vestuta,
e par che sia una cosa venuta
da cielo in terra a miracol mostrare.
Mostrasi sì piacente a chi la mira
che dà per li occhi una dolcezza al core,
che 'ntender no la può chi no la prova;
e par che de la sua labbia si mova
un spirito soave pien d'amore,
che va dicendo a l'anima: Sospira.
Dante Alighieri

the marriage of heaven and hell
« If the doors of perception were cleansed, every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite. » « Se le porte della percezione venissero sgombrate, tutto apparirebbe all'uomo come in effetti è, infinito. » | |

le sei corde
La chitarra
fa piangere i sogni.
Il singhiozzo delle anime
perdute
sfugge dalla sua bocca
rotonda.
E come la tarantola,
tesse una grande stella
per sorprendere i sospiri
che tremano nella sua nera
cisterna di legno.
fa piangere i sogni.
Il singhiozzo delle anime
perdute
sfugge dalla sua bocca
rotonda.
E come la tarantola,
tesse una grande stella
per sorprendere i sospiri
che tremano nella sua nera
cisterna di legno.
Federico Garcia Lorca
chitarra e armonica
..your greatness lies in how much you have given to others.
a musician gives his melody;
a tree, its fruits;
the ocean, its profoundity;
the sky, its vasteness..
Gurumayi

Resort is an optimistic, hopeful season for McCartney.
"I love early spring; everything's alive again and growing," she said. "I think the clothes reflect that."
turn, turn, turn
To Everything (Turn, Turn, Turn)
There is a season (Turn, Turn, Turn)
And a time to every purpose, under Heaven
There is a season (Turn, Turn, Turn)
And a time to every purpose, under Heaven
A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh, a time to weep
A time to build up, a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones, a time to gather stones together
A time of love, a time of hate
A time of war, a time of peace
A time you may embrace, a time to refrain from embracing
A time to gain, a time to lose
A time to rend, a time to sew
A time for love, a time for hate
A time for peace, I swear it's not too late
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh, a time to weep
A time to build up, a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones, a time to gather stones together
A time of love, a time of hate
A time of war, a time of peace
A time you may embrace, a time to refrain from embracing
A time to gain, a time to lose
A time to rend, a time to sew
A time for love, a time for hate
A time for peace, I swear it's not too late
To Everything (Turn, Turn, Turn)
There is a season (Turn, Turn, Turn)
And a time to every purpose, under Heaven
There is a season (Turn, Turn, Turn)
And a time to every purpose, under Heaven
