In the present entry, however, the sole holder of a little encomium I've fashioned for rmbl to bestow from an original allowance of 5 (a City of Coffee Mug), is off to university. <br /><br />It happens that Valéry's photograph of a seemingly arcadian homestead struck my fancy as a proper context for this departure, which of course the text and the portrait establish reciprocally. This final picture, although not of our time or of the place where Tomas will matriculate, carries in the illumination in its upper half such a pleasing echo of Valéry's, that the unstylishness of its lower half is able to be seen as harmless. It's in that unstylish half, I think, where you and I would happily be found, and which allows you and I to feel we hold a stake in this transition. And we know, we do. <br /><br />I thank you for the compliment of your visit. You drop in on a posting of affection for all of its elements and delight in their coherency, but you perfect it with your kindness.Laurenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17972899387484460347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4751850602006071202.post-31658923154099826752011-10-11T16:50:08.794-04:002011-10-11T16:50:08.794-04:00Simple and EXQUISITE !Simple and EXQUISITE !Lucienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16749073528569025228noreply@blogger.com
