In my room, the world is beyond my understanding;
But when I walk I see that it consists of three or four hills and a cloud.

In my room, the world is in my room … it always has!! … Wallace Stevens, “Of the Surface of Things” in Wallace Stevens: A Celebration.
I just came back from a walk with my daughter, son-in-love, 27-month-old grandson and 1-week old granddaughter.
This. 3 or 4 blocks (the curb is like a hill sometimes to a 2-year-old) and a cloud. Yes.
Thank you for the heartbalm of this quote and photo.
Sounds like a wonderful day Louise!
