NEW YEAR's EVE 2018

 STARS (1920) by Sara Teasdale
                (from the collection "Flame and Shadow")

 Alone in the night

 on a dark hill

 With pines around me

 Spicy and still......

 And a HEAVEN full of stars

 Over my head,

 White and topaz

 And misty red.....

 Myriads with beating hearts of fire......

 that aeons cannot vex......Or tire.....

  Up the dome of heaven like a great hill,

 I watch them marching stately and still...

 And I know that I am honoured to be witness

 Of so much Majesty!

Photographs 2018    Happy New Year!
