Love Poems

I Held a Jewel


I held a jewel in my fingers
And went to sleep
The day was warm, and winds were prosy
I said, "Twill keep"

I woke - and chide my honest fingers,
The Gem was gone
And now, an Amethyst remembrance
Is all I own
Emily Dickinson

Thanks for all your comments.I am undideced about shit shite and poo. I had to say poo on the radio as it was Sunday morning and the citizens of Liffey Valley had to be taken into consideration. I think poo is too juvenile. Shit is too coarse so I used shite. What do you think?I was also undideced about midden because I know what it is but I'm not sure others do. And cheater? Totally!

My daughter loves books. She eslaeiclpy loves pulling down mine, one by one. She will happily do that as many times in a day as we will replace them (now we just leave them there & put them back after she goes to bed). She's particularly fond of small books - remember those Penguin 70s from a few years ago? She thinks my collection of those is hers.(In fairness, a large number of my books actually reside in her bookcase in her room. Because I am an awful person with a large TBR pile.)Hope your daughter has good taste, because whatever she likes, you will read a lot...
