We grow accustomed to the Dark -
When light is put away -
As when the Neighbor holds the Lamp
To witness her Goodbye -

A Moment - We uncertain step
For newness of the night -
Then - fit our Vision to the Dark -
And meet the Road - erect -

And so of larger - Darknesses -
Those Evenings of the Brain -
When not a Moon disclose a sign -
Or Star - come out - within -

The Bravest - grope a little -
And sometimes hit a Tree
Directly in the Forehead -
But as they learn to see -

Either the Darkness alters -
Or something in the sight
Adjusts itself to Midnight -
And Life steps almost straight.

Oh, you can chat tomorrow. The thing is, it's so dark in here you won't actually SEE us tomorrow. So you can't say, "I'll see you all tomorrow!" See?

Sabine has a way of illuminating the CDR by tickling the jellyfish. Or so she says. They yell horribly when this happens, becoming the yellyfish :eek:

Nos da, Lena! :)
Hope the rain comes and washes it all away. ;)
Sleep well.

Rain? Here’s what we woke up to:

(This used to be a maternity hospital; now a private retirement home.)

(The 1000-year-old Cathedral, significantly extended and turned from Catholic to Lutheran over the years.)

IMG_1286.jpg
(The arch on top is a bridge between the bishop’s house and the Cathedral. You don’t expect the guy to go outside and brave the Danish weather just to go to work! The sign on the left says, “Cycling isn’t permitted.” Obviously.)
