oh beauty

deep peace in the heart. Peace I give to you, my peace I leave with you.

You will remember
By Pablo Neruda

You will remember that leaping stream
where sweet aromas rose and trembled
and sometime a bird, wearing water
and slowness its winter feathers

You will remember those gifts from the earth:
indelible scents, gold clay,
weeds in the thicket and crazy roots
magical thorns like swords

You'll remember the bouquet you picked,
shadows and silent water,
bouquet like a foam-covered stone.

That time was like never, and like always.
So we go there, where nothing is waiting, 
we find everything waiting there.
