So I was so excited today to come across this street fair/arts festival at Campus Corner. It made me realize that Norman does have a little funk and flair!
I got this great ring made out of a vintage glass bead from the 40's. And a neat little glass landscape necklace!
I also snatched up this painted chalkboard made out of what I think was the top half of an old door.
It's a beautiful day here and it was so nice to see a bit of the local community!
For your enjoyment, a slightly embarrassing picture of me at the event.
And for some reflection today, a poem about another beautiful day. Robert Frost's "A Prayer in Spring."
Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers today;
And give us not to think so far away
As the uncertain harvest; keep us here
All simply in the springing of the year.
Oh, give us pleasure in the orchard white,
Like nothing else by day, like ghosts by night;
And make us happy in the happy bees,
The swarm dialating round the perfect trees.
And make us happy in the darting bird
That suddenly above the bees is heard,
The meteor that thrusts in with needle bill,
And off a blossoming mid-air stands still.
For this is love and nothing else is love,
The which it is reserved for God above
To sanctify to what far ends He will,
But which it only needs that we fulfill.
