UNIT 7
Ray Bradbury,
IN A SEASON OF CALM WEATHER (excerpt II)
George Smith looked down at the sand. And after a
long while, looking he began to tremble.
For there on the flat shore were pictures of Grecian
lions Mediterranean goats and maidens with flesh of sand
like powdered and satyrs piping on handcarved horns and
children dancing, strewing flowers along and along the
beach with lambs gamboling after, and musicians skip
ping to their harps and lyres and unicorns racing youths
toward distant meadows, woodlands, ruined temples and
volcanoes. Everything whirled and poised in its own wind
and gravity. Now wine was being crushed from under the
grapeblooded feet of dancing vintners’ daughters, now
steaming seas gave birth to monsters while flowered kites
strewed scent on blowing clouds ... now ... now ... now...
The artist stopped.
