Theme Thursday: Movement




Hosted by Reading Between the Pages

Rules
*A theme will be posted each week on Thursday
*Select a conversation/snippet/sentence from your current book that features the theme
*Post it and don't forget to mention the author and title of the book
*Event is open for the whole week
*Link back to Reading Between the Pages
March is going to be all about making life easy. This month we will do ‘Pick what you see first‘ themes. So open the book you are reading, continue reading; pick the first mention of any name in it and post the snippet. The only condition is ‘No Ebooks’.. lets go traditional. Easy-peasy!!

And this week's theme is Movement.

Here is mine from "The Carousel" in The Rose Window & Other Verse from New Poems by Rainer Maria Rilke (p. 65):

And on the lion rides all white a boy
and holds himself with his small hot hand,
the while the lion shows his teeth and tongue
