"...something started in my soul,
fever or forgotten wings,
and I made my own way,
deciphering
that fire,
and I wrote the first faint line,
faint, without substance, pure
nonsense,
pure wisdom
of someone who knows nothing,
and suddenly I saw
the heavens
unfastened...." - Pablo Neruda (my favorite poet)

Beautiful image and I love the curled up fox
Reminds me of a line from a Blyth Spirit song (the title escapes me for the moment...)
"Idle poetasters test their mettle on the lilacs and the greens"

Went and found which song it was from - "Milton's Schemes" off of the Paradise Razed album. The rest of the verse goes :-
Round the ragged rocks, shifting in between the trees
Idle poetasters test their mettle on the lilacs and the greens
The sparrowhawks and starlings on the gallows shifting lightly in the breeze
And the mistlethrush disturbs the sheperd boy's dreams
