Last week I featured the opening lines of the “The World” by Henry Vaughan (1622-1695) and this week I’ve decided to keep going with the first stanza of this classic poem. Read the whole poem here. Photograph (of a snowdrift of petals from my first spring in Boston) and composition by me.
For the last Saturday in May, I am going early 17th-century-old poetry. The photograph was taken at the Houston Butterfly Center by Dr. Rachelle Trial – friend, colleague, photographer, and aspiring science writer – find her here and here. Epigram by Sir John Harrington, composition by me. Have a great weekend!
