W. Longfellow Longfellow's poem is poorly done, and his message is unclear. Here is my version: The days are cold, and dark, and dreary; The rains come down, and the winds don't weary. Dying vines cling to mold'ring walls; And every gust makes more leaves fall. While I am old, and my body's weary; And my youth is gone, and my sight is bleary, My mind's not on a mold'ring past, Nor will it be when comes the last. My heart is joyful, and I do no pining; For behind the clouds a new world's shining. And that's the common fate of all: Beyond each death, a new life calls. I like my version better, but others' opinions may differ. :-) --Mitchell Jones}*** ***************************************************************** If I seem to be ignoring you, consider the possibility that you are in my killfile. --MJ
From: Double-A on 30 May 2010 21:14 The storms of April proud and grand Will sweep across the rousing land, A land awaiting spring's rebirth, The farmer's plow, to prove its worth. The heart's fond fancy turns to love, Tempestuous as the storms above. We full expect a price to pay But not a chill cold wind in May. As buds explode and flowers fly The days of May come swiftly by, And all is warm for now it seems The air is sweet, and and so my dreams. But when the one whom I adore Told me there could be nothing more, My eyes averting turned away I felt the chill cold wind of May. Double-A

If you have nothing to say, you could have said it in fewer words. -- - Billy "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." - Benito Mussolini. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Arn3lF5XSUg http://www.thirdworldtraveler.com/Zinn/HZinn_page.html
