And figs grew upon thorn,
Some moment when the moon was blood
Then surely I was born….
…For I also had my hour;
One far fierce hour and sweet:
There was a shout about my ears,
And palms before my feet.”
- From the poem The Donkey by G.K. Chesterton (1874–1936)
Love this.
ReplyDeleteThe donkeys were so lovely - and perfect timing for visualizing the donkey, Puzzle, in Narnia audio book "The Last Battle" I was listening to.
