Weekly Photo Challenge: Let There Be Light!

“But the darkness pulls in everything:
shapes and fires, animals and myself,
how easily it gathers them! –
powers and people…”

― Rainer Maria Rilke

in flanders’ fields

almost one hundred years on who will not shed a tear in flanders’ fields?

will we ever learn?

“In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.”

– John McCrae
