"Yea, I have looked, and seen November there;
The changeless seal of change it seemed to be,
Fair death of things that, living once, were fair;
Bright sign of loneliness too great for me,
Strange image of the dread eternity,
In whose void patience how can these have part,
These outstretched feverish hands, this restless heart?"
by William Morris
Queen Guinevere Tapestry (Morris)Well, November isn't all THAT depressing, although pulling down tangled vines and raking wet leaves put me in a dark mood yesterday morning. Still-- the sun was out, Nova was babbling over the phone, there were sweet friends to see and a nice pork chop for dinner. Life is good.
As I was poking around the Internet looking for William Morris, I ran across some exquisite blogs-- what an inspiration. If you're interested in beautiful Pre-Raphaelite art, here's some eye candy:
