I am the Poem of Earth, said the voice of the rain
Eternal I rise impalpable out of the land and the bottomless sea

What are illusions? Milo asked, for it was the loveliest city he'd ever seen.
Illusions, explained Alec, are like mirages. And mirages are things that aren't really there that you can see very clearly.

📖 Lord of the Flies by William Golding 🎨 André François
Full fathom five thy father lies
Of his bones are coral made
Those are pearls that were his eyes
Nothing of him that doth fade
But doth suffer a sea-change
Into something rich and strange
Sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell

"That which chiefly causes the failure of a dinner party is the running short - not of meat, nor drink, but conversation."
"In an English dinner-party, I remarked "I have never known small-talk run short"

Winter solstice
Cakes and mulled wine
A walk in the woods
And all will be fine
