My Boat Stuck Something Deep
March 4, 2013 by Coral Lorax
“My boat struck something deep.
Nothing happened.
Sound, silence, waves.
Nothing happened?
Or perhaps, everything happened
And I’m sitting in the middle of my new life.”
– Juan Ramon Jimenez
Nobel Laureate for Literature in 1956
Left Spain at beginning of Spanish Civil War, 1936.
