Classic poem of the day
London, October 1 st , 1666
Sandwich in Spain now, and the duke in love,
Let's with new gen'rals a new painter prove:
Lely's a Dutchman, danger in his art;
His pencils may intelligence impart.
Thou, Gibson, that among thy navy small
Of marshaled shells commandest admiral
(Thyself so slender that thou show'st no more
Than barnacle new-hatched of them before)
Come, mix thy water-colors and express,
Draw......
Member poem of the day
dawn breaks through
between the hills
where light fragments
in spectral colors
as we snap to attention
to march on, beyond
the rest of morning chores
