| Dances With The Sun |
This is a view from Islamabad, Pakistan. I named this Photograph "Dances With The Sun", in honour of Shelley's wonderful poem. The verse that particularly delights me is:
"I bring fresh showers for the thirsting flowers,
From the seas and the streams;
I bear light shade for the leaves when laid
In their noonday dreams.
From my wings are shaken the dews that waken
The sweet buds every one,
When rocked to rest on their mother's breast,
As she dances about the sun.
I wield the flail of the lashing hail,
And whiten the green plains under,
And then again I dissolve it in rain,
And laugh as I pass in thunder."
I love his work and you can find the rest of this poem here.
