Skywatch Friday: So Pucker Up

From Topsail, April 2011
He who binds to himself a joy
Does the winged life destroy;
But he who kisses the joy as it flies
Lives in eternity's sunrise.

--William Blake

  3. The photo is so beautiful and the quote so appropriate. I would want to cling to the sight, when letting go in flight is really the best way to appreciate it. Thanks Sandy.
