“I fear’d the fury of my wind” by William Blake [w/ Audio] Posted on June 9, 2025 by B Gourley Reply I fear’d the fury of my wind Would blight all blossoms fair & true, And my sun it shin’d & shin’d, And my wind it never blew.But a blossom fair or true Was not found on any tree; For all blossoms grew & grew Fruitless, false, tho’ fair to see.

“Come slowly — Eden!” (205) by Emily Dickinson [w/ Audio] Posted on March 16, 2025 by B Gourley Reply Come slowly -- Eden! Lips unused to Thee -- Bashful -- sip thy Jessamines -- As the fainting Bee -- Reaching late his flower, Round her chamber hums -- Counts his nectars -- Enters -- and is lost in Balms.
