.................yes
Blake is a very good writer,but the sad thing is that there aren`t many fans of him.....
It`s really amazing that he has very dark poems but also optimistic too........
He was very strange.......the thin line is between madman and genious/////////

Blake's poetry is more than beautiful; it is superb, it has the essence of the Romanticism movement: to see beyond what is palpable which is the only way to find the meaning of life.
To see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild flower
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour

He had doubts about the direction he saw the world moving in in his day with the emphasis on 'rationalims' and 'materialism'

>>By Father William



I not only love his poetry...that sounds so contenporary even in nowadays..but I also love his drawings....great brain, eyes, senses and spirit....

I have just recently been getting involved with William Blake, due to a little thing that Niel Young and Johnny Depp did together. Neil's playing the guitar, of course. And Depp is reading a part of Blakes,
"Marriage of Heaven and Hell." Excellent job on the part of all three.
I've heard the name Blake most of my life and have found that I like his work very much, he puts things into perspective for me. He also reminds me of Leonardo DiVinci, whom I admire very much.
