I want to update. I, however, have nothing captivating to write about. School is over, but for only two weeks and then I start summer school. I am, nevertheless, sadden by the fact that my Poetry class is over. Hopefully I can find the same adoration in my future classes.
Here is one of my favorite poems by Robert Frost.
She is as in a field a silken tent
At midday when the sunny summer breeze
Has dried the dew and all its ropes relent,
So that in guys it gently sways at ease,
And its supporting central cedar pole,
That is its pinnacle to heavenward
And signifies the sureness of the soul,
Seems to owe naught to any single cord,
But strictly held by none, is loosely bound
By countless silken ties of love and thought
To everything on earth the compass round,
And only by one’s going slightly taut
In the capriciousness of summer air
Is of the slightest bondage made aware.
