decide if the poem below is full of wisdom or soppy (or both.) But in August, with the annual radiance of sunflowers, it speaks to me. (Although I&#8217;d prefer to embrace the present rather than reveling in memory. Move forwards. not backwards.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You Can&#8217;t Have It All<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>But you can have the fig tree and its fat leaves like clown hands<br>gloved with green. You can have the touch of a single eleven-year-old finger<br>on your cheek, waking you at one a.m. to say the hamster is back.<br>You can have the purr of the cat and the soulful look<br>of the black dog, the look that says, If I could I would bite<br>every sorrow until it fled, and when it is August,<br>you can have it August and abundantly so. You can have love,<br>though often it will be mysterious, like the white foam<br>that bubbles up at the top of the bean pot over the red kidneys<br>until you realize foam&#8217;s twin is blood.<br>You can have the skin at the center between a man&#8217;s legs,<br>so solid, so doll-like. You can have the life of the mind,<br>glowing occasionally in priestly vestments, never admitting pettiness,<br>never stooping to bribe the sullen guard who&#8217;ll tell you<br>all roads narrow at the border.<br>You can speak a foreign language, sometimes,<br>and it can mean something. You can visit the marker on the grave<br>where your father wept openly. You can&#8217;t bring back the dead,<br>but you can have the words&nbsp;<em>forgive<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>forget<\/em>&nbsp;hold hands<br>as if they meant to spend a lifetime together. And you can be grateful<br>for makeup, the way it kisses your face, half spice, half amnesia, grateful<br>for Mozart, his many notes racing one another towards joy, for towels<br>sucking up the drops on your clean skin, and for deeper thirsts,<br>for passion fruit, for saliva. You can have the dream,<br>the dream of Egypt, the horses of Egypt and you riding in the hot sand.<br>You can have your grandfather sitting on the side of your bed,<br>at least for a while, you can have clouds and letters, the leaping<br>of distances, and Indian food with yellow sauce like sunrise.<br>You can&#8217;t count on grace to pick you out of a crowd<br>but here is your friend to teach you how to high jump,<br>how to throw yourself over the bar, backwards,<br>until you learn about love, about sweet surrender,<br>and here are periwinkles, buses that kneel, farms in the mind<br>as real as Africa. And when adulthood fails you,<br>you can still summon the memory of the black swan on the pond<br>of your childhood, the rye bread with peanut butter and bananas<br>your grandmother gave you while the rest of the family slept.<br>There is the voice you can still summon at will, like your mother&#8217;s,<br>it will always whisper, you can&#8217;t have it all,<br>but there is this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.poetryfoundation.org\/poets\/barbara-ras\">Barbara Ras<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sky filled with clouds, the rain would appear in force the next day.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"890\" height=\"668\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/IMG_4177.jpg?resize=890%2C668&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-52450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/IMG_4177.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/IMG_4177.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/IMG_4177.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/IMG_4177.jpg?resize=560%2C420&amp;ssl=1 560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/IMG_4177.jpg?resize=80%2C60&amp;ssl=1 80w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/IMG_4177.jpg?w=1440&amp;ssl=1 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 890px) 100vw, 890px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"890\" height=\"668\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/IMG_4160.jpg?resize=890%2C668&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-52465\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/IMG_4160.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/IMG_4160.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/IMG_4160.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/IMG_4160.jpg?resize=560%2C420&amp;ssl=1 560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/IMG_4160.jpg?resize=80%2C60&amp;ssl=1 80w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/IMG_4160.jpg?w=1440&amp;ssl=1 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 890px) 100vw, 890px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=WYVzEAKzvfs\">Music<\/a> today played by the talented Sol Gabetta, who was seemingly dressed in a cloud, but her cello sounded more like thunder, appropriately Shostakovian.
