David Whyte on Rilke's The Swan

Translation by Robert Bly

[@ziyou1969]

Beautiful reflection and recitation of Rainer Maria Rilke's poem "The Swan". Reflect on the question: "What is the elemental water of your life"? Pure genius.

Outstanding. Even in 2021

[@rongwrong1]

Simply great. So many people raised in the atmosphere of American or English Literature miss out on the melancholy genius that is Rilke.

I bought the Duino Elegies on whim years ago, it shattered me. Beautiful stuff.

Excellent philosophical imagery.....it is Parvati’s Mirror all over again.....Om Tat Sat!

[@rilkedev449]

You make all things a reflection of your narrow beliefs. For once, embrace the broad nature of all things without tying them down to your own literature.
