Translation of the Dream
Anthony Satori
Eyes Turned Skyward
“Flight” | Anthony Satori
“For once you have tasted flight you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been and there you will long to return.”
— Leonardo da Vinci
Infinitely At Ease
“Pink and Yellow Rose” | Anthony Satori
“Infinitely at ease
despite so many risks,
with no variation
of her usual routine,
the blooming rose is the omen
of her immeasurable endurance.
Do we know how she survives?
No doubt one of her days
is all the earth and all
of our infinity.”
– Rainer Maria Rilke
Protect The Light
“Palm Tree, Tractor, Wildfire” | Anthony Satori
“Do not go gentle into that good night; rage, rage against the dying of the light.”
— Dylan Thomas
The Perfection of Stillness
“The Perfection of Stillness” | Anthony Satori
It is a uniquely pleasurable sensation to observe “daytime” things under the darkness and quiet of night. There is something deeply peaceful and reassuring about seeing a place that is usually filled with noise, activity, people, and words, and rather seeing it in a state of silence and calm, lacking nothing, existing complete and beautiful in the perfection of its stillness.
Dream By Day
“Shine” | Anthony Satori
“They who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night.”
— Edgar Allan Poe
The Seagull
“The Seagull” | Anthony Satori
[a poem]
Who knows?
Perhaps the seagull
was once a fish
who dreamed of the sky
so earnestly
that Nature eventually decided
to give her wings.
A Love Story
“The Blue Dream of Sky” | Anthony Satori
“i thank you God for most this amazing day, for the leaping greenly spirits of trees, and for the blue dream of sky and for everything which is natural, which is infinite, which is yes.”
— e. e. cummings
Sky Wide Open
“Sky Wide Open” | Anthony Satori
“God always strives together with those who strive.”
— Aeschylus
This Is Not An Apple
“This Is Not An Apple” | Anthony Satori
It is always worth the effort to strive to understand the heart and mind of someone that you love. Approach each other with compassion and empathy. Give the process time and space. And always leave room for silence and breath. If you do these things, you will always find yourself returning to a place of resonance, peace, and harmony.
