LITERARY CORNER


When You Are Old

When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;

How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;

And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
--William Butler Yeats


The Philosopher

And what are you that, wanting you
I should be kept awake
As many nights as there are days
With weeping for your sake?
And what are you that, missing you,
As many days as crawl
I should be listening to the wind
And looking at the wall?
I know a man that's a braver man
And twenty men as kind,
And what are you, that you should be
The one man in my mind?
Yet women's ways are witless ways,
As any sage will tell,--
And what am I, that I should love
So wisely and so well?
--Edna St. Vincent Millay


Vintage D'Amour

Crystal, our true color,
Reflects the way we are--
Some days as blue as twilight
Seen lonely from afar.

Some days offer sunshine
Raining gold delight,
Reveling in laughter
From sunrise til firelight.

Night lures to crimson joy
Stolen hours of secret bliss,
Tiny buttons, hidden fever
Of heightened senses--final kiss.

Others' loves are open--
Orthodox, blasé
We sip passion secretly--
Forbidden cabernet.
--Anonymous




"You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because the reality is better than your dreams. --Dr. Seuss
