Here's a personal favourite: <BR/><BR/>The Look <BR/><BR/>Strephon kissed me in the spring,<BR/> Robin in the fall,<BR/>But Colin only looked at me<BR/> And never kissed at all.<BR/><BR/>Strephon's kiss was lost in jest,<BR/> Robin's lost in play,<BR/>But the kiss in Colin's eyes<BR/> Haunts me night and day.<BR/><BR/>Also (apologies for really long comment) this, which explains some things: <BR/><BR/>Alone<BR/> <BR/> I am alone, in spite of love,<BR/>In spite of all I take and give—<BR/>In spite of all your tenderness,<BR/>Sometimes I am not glad to live.<BR/><BR/>I am alone, as though I stood <BR/>On the highest peak of the tired gray world,<BR/>About me only swirling snow,<BR/>Above me, endless space unfurled;<BR/><BR/>With earth hidden and heaven hidden,<BR/>And only my own spirit's pride<BR/>To keep me from the peace of those <BR/>Who are not lonely, having died.<BR/><BR/>Incidentally, this is Fiona of Pursued by a Bear, but it only lets me post a comment as a google blogger. Any way you can change it to the Name, URL option that so many blogs have? Just a thought. . .fionahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05516670318425799170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2684536971172270103.post-39746909074010264692009-04-08T19:19:00.000+01:002009-04-08T19:19:00.000+01:00Cool.
