Overdue
blooming early
It’s been a while, eh? Sorry about that.
Writing has been done. Photos have been taken. Time has been spent. Songs have been sung. Hearts have been searched. Poetry has been read.
Here’s a few photos I’ve taken…
Danny Goffey from Supergrass in the 6 Music Hub
My brother and niece, Easter Monday
Our band knocking out 20th Century Boy and the office party
Ed O’Brien of Radiohead at the BBC Radio Theatre
And there’s LOADS more where they came from. Click on any image to go through to the set on Flickr. I’m really chuffed because some of my Radiohead and Supergrass shots have been used on the official BBC sites! Hoorah!
I’ll leave you, promising to come back sooner than last time with a poem by e.e.cummings. It’s sums up most of my mornings.
it is at moments after i have dreamed
it is at moments after i have dreamed
of the rare entertainment of your eyes,
when (being fool to fancy) i have deemed
with your peculiar mouth my heart made wise;
at moments when the glassy darkness holds
the genuine apparition of your smile
(it was through tears always)and silence moulds
such strangeness as was mine a little while;
moments when my once more illustrious arms
are filled with fascination, when my breast
wears the intolerant brightness of your charms:
one pierced moment whiter than the rest
-turning from the tremendous lie of sleep
i watch the roses of the day grow deep.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! That is amazing! I want to hear the show. Where do I go? I love the e.e. cummings poem. I presently have a book of his poetry by my bed, and I’ve been reading about 10 poems a night. Lots of them (I must admit) are not all that enjoyable to me, but about every fifth or sixth poem, he hits on something beautiful and universal. My favorite is the one that starts: “somewhere beyond any experience, your eyes have their silence….”
