Favorite poem?
.oO"The Moon" - Sappho!
the stars about the lovely moon
fade back and vanish very soon,
when, round and full, her silver face
swims into sight, and lights all space.
good call
as a Baltimorian, I approve
this isn't really a poem, but it's some of my favorite from Shakespear.....
Sweet are the uses of adversity,
Which, like the toad, ugly and venomous,
Wears yet a precious jewel in his head;
And this our life, exempt from human haunt,
Finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks,
Sermons in stones, and good in everything.
I would not change it.
Is there for honest poverty What though on hamely fare we dine, Ye see you birkie ca'd 'a lord,' A prince can mak a belted knight, Then let us pray that come it may

A man and his Epson pen
Always carried near to his heart
Like Barbie and Ken
They will never be apart
from Cliif Burton
He murders some part of the world
These are the pale deaths which men miscall their lives
All this I cannot bear to witness any longer
Cannot the kingdom of salvation take me home?
Wee sleekit, cow'rin, tim'rous beastie, |
"The Groundhog" by Red Green
It is winter
The groundhog emerges from his burrow and sees a shadow
It is the shadow of my right front tire
That means winter will last another six weeks
But not for him
The Last Oblivion
Not while the woods are redolent with spring,
Or scentless immortelles of autumn blow,
Shall I evade your loveliness, or know
Surcease of love and love's remembering.
But haply wandering, worlds and cycles hence,
Through unforeseen fantastic avatars,
I shall forget you in the future stars,
And take of time an alien recompense.
Till in some strange and latter planet, wrought
From molten shards and meteor-dust of this,
My hand shall pluck an unsuspected bloom
That lifts again the scarlet of your kiss;
And I shall muse and loiter, knowing not
The love that perished like a lost perfume.
― Clark Ashton Smith
