How can we know the dancer from the dance?

“O chestnut-tree, great rooted blossomer,
Are you the leaf, the blossom or the bole?
O body swayed to music, O brightening glance,
How can we know the dancer from the dance?”

“Among Schoolchildren” by W.B. Yeats

    Bill,

    How lovely to discover your blog. I cannot manage to put in a photo or give myself the name I want to. I "believe" I need a live-in computer geek!
    The main thing is to be here and to join you on your path.

    I simply love this excerpt from Yeats.
