Sorrowful Beauty

Beautiful scenes in Beaufort this afternoon are in stark contrast to the early morning hours in a Charleston ER as a medically fragile child passed to the comforting arms of Jesus.
 
"Once out of nature I shall never take
My bodily form from any natural thing,
But such a form as Grecian goldsmiths make
Of hammered gold and gold enamelling
To keep a drowsy Emperor awake;
Or set upon a golden bough to sing
To lords and ladies of Byzantium
Of what is past, or passing, or to come."
- W. B. Yeats
