You know I am not a quoter, and lord knows there has already been a surfeit of quoting here, but I just can't help myself--these lines are just too beautiful to leave unremarked:<br /><br />"Now, it is always night, always summer,<br />and blackbirds do your bidding at every blue hour.." <br /><br />that slant rhyme/assonance of summer/hour is just hypnotic.

I think we must bow nod in silence at the line and concept of "kitty the solstice" pure brilliance. I like that this piece has tucked inside itself...by which I mean:<br /><br />There are leaves yet to be unfurled, but just when to whose liking has yet to be decided.
