A swan: ‘I have looked upon these brilliant creatures, and now my heart is sore’ | Helen Sullivan

R.Good morning I learned the word “Limn”. It looked like a typo, and I ignored it almost. But I pressed the letters on my phone, causing its meaning in a small box, such as a window that appears in the wall. To Limn is “Photography or Description in Drawing or Words”.

I was drinking cold coffee in my kitchen, and Prepare to write this column – last. Because I knew that I would do the swan, a large water bird with a long decision began to revolve around my mind, so it seemed clear that the word Limn looks like Swan: The Lall L with a small dust of the submerged head, and the letters after that.

This can also mean “to bear light”, or outlines: the moon is limited to the dark river and the white feathers on it. Limn: It comes from Luminare, to add light, shed light, as in lighting, or decorating, manuscript.

Just later, when I read the phrase “Farewell, all joys! I thought I wrote about swans in this column before. I had, In November 2022.

My mother recently told me that she was worried that in the past two years or so, I “lost some of my innocence.” This is the thing that mothers say you are completely innocent, for movies, and you think about anything but popcorn and wine. This is the type of thing they tend to be right. Throughout the writing of these columns, I gave birth to a child, lost an important person for me and lost, then rebuilt, my sense. The swan song that I wrote in 2022 was by a person feeling knowledge, but separate, about the song that was standing in my kitchen this morning.

So it is completely right to have two visions of the tongue: one before, and one yet. After all, the most famous SWAN poem, Yeats’ The Wild Swans at Coole, revolves around this feeling of change between one year and another, and its awareness because you see swans:

I looked at these wonderful creatures,
And now my heart is painful.
Everything has changed since I heard in the twilight,
The first time on this beach,
The bell of their wings over my head,
You want with a lighter juvenile.

Her tongue will not obey her heart and cannot
Her heart reaches her tongue, which is the swan
Below the nomad,
This stands on swelling in the tide,
It is not inclined in both cases.
