Words on a cold morning in winter
just before sunrise
Good rest last nightEarly morning
Foggy.
Looking for words...
Already written
Words of Worth...
Wordsworth said it well:
The world is too much with us
The world is too much with us ; late and soon, |
Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers : |
Little we see in Nature that is ours ; |
We have given our hearts away, a sordid boon ! |
This Sea that bares her bosom to the moon ; |
The winds that will be howling at all hours, |
And are up-gathered now like sleeping flowers ; |
For this, for everything, we are out of tune ; |
It moves us not. – Great God ! I’d rather be |
A Pagan suckled in a creed outworn ; |
So might I, standing on this pleasant lea, |
Have glimpses that would make me less forlorn ; |
Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea ; |
Or hear old Triton blow his wreathèd horn. |
