Time present and time past
Are both perhaps present in time future,
And time future contained in time past.
If all time is eternally present
All time is unredeemable.

-- T. S. Eliot

🎨 Alois Delug, "Die Nornen" (1894)

Does the sea have emotions, I wonder,
Or is it just a matter of science?
Can the sea become "agitated,"
Or is it merely a chaotic combination
Of wind and moon and sun and season?

🎨 Monet, "Mer agitée à Étretat" (Agitated Sea at Étretat) (1883)

Il mare dona le sue perle,
le miniere il loro oro,
i giardini d’estate i loro fiori
per adornarti, per coprirti,
per renderti sempre più preziosa

Tagore ✒️

Has something caught her fancy, then --
Some bit of verse, some paragraph?
Perhaps it happened -- oh, but when --
A stolen kiss, a giddy laugh.

🎨 Conrad Kiesel (1846-1921), "Daydreaming"
