Dappled Things

(Outfit Details; slip, Brandy Melville. shirt, Daisy Janes (boutique in York, ME), necklaces, Shop Infinite Style)

I love dappled summer time sunlight, wearing all white (instead of all black, for a change), lace details, and this poem;

"Glory be to God for dappled things -

For skies of couple-colour as a brinded cow;

For rose-moles all in stipple upon trout that swim;

Fresh-firecoal chestnut-falls; finches' wings;

Landscape plotted and pieced - fold, fallow, and plough;

And all trades, their gear and tackle and trim.

All things counter, original, spare, strange;

Whatever is fickle, freckled (who knows how?)

With swift, slow; sweet, sour; adazzle, dim;

He fathers-forth whose beauty is past change:

Praise him."

-Gerard Manley Hopkins
