You gave me hyacinths first a year ago; They called me the hyacinth girl.' โYet when we came back, late, from the Hyacinth garden, Your arms full, and your hair wet, I could not Speak, and my eyes failed, I was neither Living nor dead, and I knew nothing, Looking into the heart of light, the silence. Od' und leer das Meer.

T. S. EliotWe had the experience but missed the meaning. And approach to the meaning restores the experience in a different form.
