“Break, break, break,
On thy cold grey stones, O sea!
And I would that my tongue could utter
The thoughts that arise in me.”

a quotation by Alfred Lord Tennyson

    Dear Pamela, What absolutely lovely images to accompany the lines from Tennyson, a poet who appeals to me greatly. I very much hope that you are enjoying yourself hugely on the 'Island' [although I have no idea where it might be!].

    Edward knows that life all started by the sea, harmoniously and violently, chaos and harmony in one split second. Enjoy the island.

    First time at the beach with my Suzy, chocolate lab, she dove in to rescue me. Biting my bikini bottom & dragging me in.

    Huge holes. Too sexy.

    Thanks for your pic of Edward at the beach and reminding me of my Suzy.

    Girl, those shoes are great too.

    Garden & Be Well, XO Tara

    Oh Pamela,
    How wonderful to be on a beach that is SO empty and desolate.
    Beautiful photographs accompanied by the words of Tennyson.
    ........ and Eward looks so distinguished, looking out to sea.
    Have a lovely new week, Pamela. XXXX

    Great shots of Edward on the beach. What's the betting that he, like all good PON's doesn't like to get too close to the water ?

    Oh Edward! He looks so content with his patch in the world over there. So glad you had a lovely time. :)

    And I love Tennyson... my favourite poem is The Lady of Shalott, and my favourite painting is of the same name, by Waterhouse. Can't get enough of those Pre-Raphaelites. And the word verification is 'dentses' - not quite 'Dante' but close!

    Oh, I love this. The verse and the pictures. They take my breath away.

    PS: Dog love is a new world to me, as of a few weeks ago. But already, I feel shaken up and in many ways, more whole.

    The first time I encountered these lines by Tennyson was in 'What Katy Did Next', by Susan Coolidge!
