Sunday Respite – ‘Walking in the Air’

Sunday, December 10, 2023 5:15

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

What better way to set the mood for Christmas than something from Andre Rieu. I discovered this arrangement several years ago and put this in my “must” for Christmas each year.

For today’s Sunday Respite I have chosen “Walking in the Air” – André Rieu from “Snowman.”

I will add “The Snow-Storm” by Ralph Waldo Emerson to set the winter mood. No “tracking snow” yet in my part of the world, as my father would say this time of year.

Here is the second chance to catch yesterday’s post full of fun and satire and mayhem

Saturday Passel of Fun and Mayhem 12/9

By all means, watch in full screen.

by Ralph Waldo Emerson

The Snow-Storm

Announced by all the trumpets of the sky,

Arrives the snow, and, driving o’er the fields,

Seems nowhere to alight: the whited air

Hides hills and woods, the river, and the heaven,

And veils the farm-house at the garden’s end.

The sled and traveller stopped, the courier’s feet

Delayed, all friends shut out, the housemates sit

Around the radiant fireplace, enclosed

In a tumultuous privacy of storm.

Come see the north wind’s masonry.

Out of an unseen quarry evermore

Furnished with tile, the fierce artificer

Curves his white bastions with projected roof

Round every windward stake, or tree, or door.

Speeding, the myriad-handed, his wild work

So fanciful, so savage, nought cares he

For number or proportion. Mockingly,

On coop or kennel he hangs Parian wreaths;

A swan-like form invests the hidden thorn;

Fills up the farmer’s lane from wall to wall,

Maugre the farmer’s sighs; and, at the gate,

A tapering turret overtops the work.

And when his hours are numbered, and the world

Is all his own, retiring, as he were not,

Leaves, when the sun appears, astonished Art

To mimic in slow structures, stone by stone,

Built in an age, the mad wind’s night-work,

The frolic architecture of the snow.

A few links from those who toil in the swamp that may be of interest.
