spring rains
crawl up the valley, yet
snow relicts persist.

a cathedral
set against a snowcap
plays the minor shrine.

“My Heart Leaps Up” by William Wordsworth [w/ Audio]
My heart leaps up when I behold
A rainbow in the sky:
So was it when my life began;
So is it now I am a man;
So be it when I shall grow old,
Or let me die!
The Child is father of the Man;
And I could wish my days to be
Bound each to each by natural piety.

thistles are flowering,
looking spiky and dangerous,
yet soft and comely

one black and one tan --
the lighter moves on.

PROMPT: Fears
For example: being punched in the face and swimming in open waters.
As for how, to my knowledge there’s only one way to overcome any fear and that’s exposure to the fearful stimulus. e.g. One loses (at least greatly reduces) fear of being hit by sparring.

“The Eagle” by Alfred, Lord Tennyson [w/ Audio]
He clasps the crag with crooked hands;
Close to the sun in lonely lands
Ring'd with the azure world, he stands.
The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls;
He watches from his mountain walls,
And like a thunderbolt he falls.

drags many fields’ of soil
to the sea each day.
