* From my spirit's gray defeat, From my pulse's flagging beat, From my hopes that turned to sand Sifting through my close-clenched hand, From my own fault's slavery, If I can sing, I still am free. Sara Teasdale, ‘Refuge’ Photo: Millennium Park, Chicago. 2026
* People who have never had a broken heart will never understand dead roses, Tolstoy, airport lounges, Albinoni’s Adagio in G Minor, neat brandy, the moon and drizzle. - Wendy Harmer Photo: Michigan Avenue, Chicago. 2025
* This world A fading Mountain echo Void and Unreal Within A light snow Three Thousand Realms Within those realms Light snow falls As the snow Engulfs my hut At dusk My heart, too Is completely consumed - Taigu Ryokan Photo: Millennium Park, Chicago. 2025
I want to know if you know how to melt into that fierce heat of living falling toward the center of your longing. ― David Whyte Photo: Art Institute of Chicago. 2025
* Oh, not to be separated, shut off from the starry dimensions by so thin a wall. What is within us if not intensified sky traversed with birds and deep with winds of homecoming? - Rainer Maria Rilke Photo: Pilsen, Chicago. 2025
* * The sun descending in the west, The evening star does shine; The birds are silent in their nest. And I must seek for mine. The moon, like a flower In heaven’s high bower, With silent delight Sits and smiles on the night. — William Blake Photo: Art Institute of Chicago. 2025
* The hand in shadow turned the hourglass, And the negligible bit of sand which slides And is silent, is the only thing now heard, And, being heard, doesn't vanish in the dark. - Giuseppe Ungaretti Photo: Art Institute of Chicago. 2025
* And we go on and on, Neither sleeping nor awake, Towards the meeting, unaware That we are already there. - Gabriela Mistral Photo: State Street, Chicago. 2025
* The fires of night through distance dance ghosts who still know how to sing ― Tamara Rendell, ‘Mystical Tides’ Photo: South Michigan Avenue, Chicago. 2025
* The hand in shadow turned the hourglass, And the negligible bit of sand which slides And is silent, is the only thing now heard, And, being heard, doesn't vanish in the dark. - Giuseppe Ungaretti Photo: Grand Boulevard, Chicago. 2025
* All night I hear the voice of someone seeking me. All night you abandon me slowly . . . All night I write luminous messages, messages of rain, all night some-one checks for me and I check for someone. — Alejandra Pizarnik Photo: Wabash Avenue, Chicago. 2025
* “Who woke me up?" said Lazarus. "I dreamed that I was dead." He stopped and pulled the covers up Clean above his head. "Who woke me up?" said Lazarus, Within the ruined room. "Who?" asked the hoot-owl, "Who?" the empty tomb. - Elder Olson Photo: Wicker Park, Chicago. 2022
* We are captives, even if our wheat grows over the fences and swallows rise from our broken chains. We are captives of what we love, what we desire, and what we are. — Mahmoud Darwish Photo: Argyle Street, Chicago. February 2025
* As we walk through the secretive doors of our remembrance, looking for forgotten benchmarks of our history, we can find unexpected escape hatches opening into valuable answers to great expectations. — Erik Pevernagie Photo: Nichols Bridgeway, Chicago. 2024
* To be human is to be broken and broken is its own kind of beautiful. — Robert M. Drake Photo: Chicago. 2025
* Since brass, nor stone, nor earth, nor boundless sea But sad mortality o’er-sways their power, How with this rage shall beauty hold a plea, Whose action is no stronger than a flower? - William Shakespeare, ‘Sonnet 65’ Photo: Old Town, Chicago. February 2025
* Everything is ceremony in the wild garden of childhood . . . Everything is new and old in the surrounding luster . . . — Pablo Neruda Photo: Argyle Street, Chicago. February 2025
* Something subtle and profound happens when you turn and look back at the road you have traveled. The road where you left no footprints, where all of life was left behind. - Dulce María Loynaz Photo: Eureka, Illinois. February 2025
* In this primordial quiet, every sound is an awakening that soothes and invites one to savour the hidden magic of a new beginning. — David Passarelli Photo: Belmont Harbor, Chicago. February 2025
* Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness (?) – Keats Photo: Grant Park, Chicago. February 2025
