Tilting At Waves

Blessed

Posted by derrick on February 28, 2006
Do you know the land where the lemon-trees grow,
In darkened leaves the gold-oranges glow,
A soft wind blows from the pure blue sky,
The myrtle stands mute, and the bay tree high?
Do you know it well? - Goethe

I wonder if I need say any more about this picture. . Here’s fellow Wisconsinite Ross being blessed by Freya Hoffmeister while in Florida at the Gulf Coast Symposium. One hears a legend that anyone truly blessed by Freya can at once stand on their head while their kayak rides calmly upon turbulant seas.

So we’ll all be watching Ross for signs of his new powers.
