My Star ~ Poem by Robert Browning

My Star

All that I know
Of a certain star
Is, it can throw
(Like the angled spar)
Now a dart of red,
Now a dart of blue;
Till my friends have said
They would fain see, too,
My star that dartless the red and the blue!
Then it stops like a bird; like a flower hangs furled:
They must solace themselves with the Saturn above it.
What matter to me if their star is a world?  
Mine has opened its soul to me, therefore I love it

– Robert Browning

Today’s Quote by Monet on Seeing

To see we must forget the name of the thing we are looking at.

Claude Monet

Almost ~ Poem by Emily Dickinson

ALMOST!

by Emily Dickinson

Within my reach!
I could have touched!
I might have chanced that way!
Soft sauntered through the village,
Sauntered as soft away!
So unsuspected violets
Within the fields lie low,
Too late for striving fingers
That passed, an hour ago.
