And when Thyself with shining Foot shall pass
Among the Guests Star-scatter'd on the Grass,
And in thy joyous Errand reach the Spot
Where I made one—turn down an empty Glass!
- from the Fitzgerald translation of the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam

that is a gorgeous visual...and I like the words too!
like five jewels before us...
not that we are swine..
Very cool. I like that a lot. It really pops.
I like the jewels coming bursting from the fingertips ... and the Rubaiyat - love it. I was introduced when I did the play "Ah, Wilderderness" and the main character quoted "A book of verses, underneath a bough -- a jug of wine, a loaf of bread and thou - beside me, singing in the wilderness." Love that.
words and picture..well blended
love
