Elemental!

The following post is inspired by this post at the blog... when love comes to town! Here is the link to the post http://rj-whenlovecomestotown.blogspot.com/2009/07/humility-imagination-and-laughter-as.html

Poetry in the larger sense of the word--poems, stories, myths, paintings, dances, dreams--is the most exhilarating and transporting vehicle for travel there is. More effective than space shuttles, more penetrating than warp speed starships, and more probing than Mars rovers, poetry takes us far, far away to a reality that is at once our own and absolutely alien..--Thomas Moore, Original Self....Living with Paradox and Originality
