I was asked to submit my own favorite. This would be it. The picture is one peering into a Turkish prison cell in
the ancient prison fortress of Akka, Israel.
Cary Enoch Reinstein took the photo in 1973 ... aka enochsvision, Enoch's Vision Inc.

Behind all these manifestations is the one radiance, which shines
through all. Please check out his other masterpieces.

"By contrast…Lo!
The Flint to Steel
By spark to flame
Their thoughts reveal
That He the Metal
She the Stone
Had cherished secretly
Alone."
In awed respect
Flickered a flame
In thoughts for capture
None to blame
For in their spirit’s
Restless flight
Their flame grew on
Brighter…Bright
The nights were tasted
Theirs to own
As daylight fades
It’s shadowed form
They stole another
Blissful eve
Because they chose
To believe.
As metal drapes
Itself to stone
In ecstasy
They’re not alone
For lovers ... friends
Eternal plight
Is live by days
To love for nights.
With purloined rhythm
Hearts beat close
They loved till dawn
As sun arose
Flint to Steel
Their Metal honed
Content once more…for days alone
YES!!! Others have mentioned the strong rhythm and it reminds me of burnished metal being hammered.

Great poetry, Susan! K xx

If you think you know Delaware, think again. Pirates? Quakers fighting with Pennsylvania? Towns so ugly no one would settle there? With stunning pictures and straightforward storytelling, Dave Tabler opens hidden passages and describes defining momen
The heroic story of how a small group of people, few of them TB experts, found the cure for the greatest killer in human history. But the battle needed to be extended to all sufferers. Why have we failed to take the miracle to the developing world?
