Poetry

When I was a teen, I saw a Katherine Hepburn movie, don't ask me which, that had the line 'The was a boy in China who drowned while trying to kiss the moon in a puddle. He was drunk, but he still made beautiful poetry'. It really stuck with me for some reason and I think of it often when there are flashes of beauty reflected in puddles. 






Not when I'm drunk. 

Apparently it's based on the Chinese poet Li Bai.

Which is strangely poetic.

    Reflections in puddles are pretty. I like the heart mural. Thanks for contributing to Monday Murals Lydia.

    J’adore ce souvenir, et qu’il continue d’alimenter tes émerveillements (kwarkito)

    A puddle is a true entry to the Upside Down
