similarities...



{ click on the links below the captures to see these lovelies on flickr, and to see more work from each inspiring photographer }



Oh! divine moments so sacred and pure
So still as if death at sight
Uplifted hearts crying out through the darkness
The broken monotony of the night
Wilderness of thought and vision
Lonely sighs for consoling light
Searching for the glorious moment
Bewildering the wrong from the right

~ kathleen mary redlich


how exciting to receive a package in the mail this week from my aunt, filled with pages of some of my grandmother's earliest poetry, from her junior high and high school days


we shared both a name and a love for the song of words.  my grandmother passed away when i was a child, so it is truly a delight to see these bits and pieces of her life... to catch glimpses of similarities
