The Great Minimum

what a beautiful poem! i've read some of chesterton's prose but am unfamiliar with his poetry. must remedy this!

(btw, i am impressed by his boldness in writing "who have ate" in order to preserve meter. i couldn't do that. *g*)

[truyuanfen]

yes! i only came across it via El Perro Del Mar. I highly recommend listening to her other music. Simply beautiful.

it is something. now all that needs to happen is for you to go and look at the fireflies in gramercy park and i will believe.
thanks so much, this made my week.

[truyuanfen]

oh, I always forget about those fireflies. how bout the ones in prospect park? don't need a key to get in there.

[purejuice]

just as beautiful, i'm sure, but that the fireflies do have a key to gramercy park makes me laugh every time.

This I love most:

It is something to have watched when all men slept,
And seen the stars which never see the sun.

So many good lines in there. Here's my favorite:

It is something to have hungered once as those
Must hunger who have ate the bread of gods.
